EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Central Manchester's main shopping area on a busy day in July 1970. The image captures the essence of a vibrant city, with King Street serving as its lively artery. Traders can be seen unloading their goods from their vans, creating an atmosphere filled with energy and productivity. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era, where trade and commerce thrived on the streets rather than behind closed doors. It offers a glimpse into the daily life of hardworking individuals who played a vital role in keeping the city alive and thriving. The vintage cars parked along the street add to the charm of this snapshot from history. They serve as reminders of how much transportation has evolved over time, highlighting both progress and nostalgia. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to an era when cities were bustling hubs of activity, filled with people going about their daily routines. It allows us to appreciate not only the physical transformation that urban areas have undergone but also reflects on how society has changed since then. Captured by R Cornfield, this print serves as a window into Manchester's past—a testament to its rich history and enduring spirit that continues to shape it today.
