EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Charlie Ley, we are transported back to May 1961 in the bustling streets of Islington, London. The image beautifully portrays an elderly man engrossed in deep concentration as he studies the form guide inside A E Fane and Co betting shop. With furrowed brows and a newspaper held firmly in his hands, it is evident that this gentleman takes his gambling seriously. The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia as we witness a snapshot of life from another era. The dimly lit interior of the betting shop creates an atmosphere filled with anticipation and excitement. Surrounding the man are shelves stacked high with racing guides, creating an ambiance steeped in tradition. As our eyes meet his weathered face, one can't help but wonder about the stories etched on every line and wrinkle. Perhaps he has been frequenting this very establishment for years or maybe today marks a special occasion where luck may finally be on his side. Charlie Ley's photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how places like A E Fane and Co were once integral parts of communities - gathering spots where dreams were born or shattered with each bet placed. This thought-provoking image invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with risk-taking while paying homage to the timeless allure of old-fashioned betting shops during simpler times gone by.
