EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young boy immersed in his cowboy fantasy amidst the backdrop of Collyhurst, Manchester on January 14th, 1968. As he playfully brandishes his toy gun, it is evident that this street holds a special significance for him and his family. His grandfather once knew this very same street when tiny terraced houses stood proudly facing each other, creating an intimate community atmosphere. However, times have changed since then. The boy's father vividly remembers the arrival of bulldozers that marked the beginning of transformation and progress. Today, this place remains a playground where remnants of the past intertwine with the promise of a new frontier. The contrast between old and new is striking in this image; it showcases both nostalgia for what was lost and anticipation for what lies ahead. The architecture tells stories of generations gone by while simultaneously hinting at urban regeneration efforts taking place around them. Dennis Hussey skillfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also the essence of childhood innocence against an ever-changing urban landscape. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst demolition and construction, imagination knows no bounds - allowing children to create their own worlds regardless of external circumstances.
