EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by Paul Barkshire on the 28th of June 1986, transports us back to a vibrant corner of London's Soho district. The image showcases the iconic façade of Bill Stickers Restaurant/Bar at 18 Greek Street, a place steeped in history and brimming with entertainment and leisure. The photograph captures the essence of this beloved establishment, which once housed Peter Cooks' renowned The Establishment Club. Its walls have witnessed countless nights filled with laughter, intellectual debates, and artistic performances that defined an era. This snapshot serves as a testament to the cultural significance that emanated from within these very walls. As we gaze upon this piece of history frozen in time, we are transported to an era where creativity thrived amidst bohemian charm. The faded signage above the entrance proudly displays "Bill Stickers" inviting passersby into its warm embrace. It is impossible not to be drawn in by the allure of what lies beyond those doors. Paul Barkshire's keen eye has captured more than just bricks and mortar; he has encapsulated an entire atmosphere within this single frame. With each passing year since this photograph was taken, it becomes increasingly important to preserve such moments that define our collective heritage. This print serves as a reminder that behind every building lies stories waiting to be told – tales of joyous gatherings, thought-provoking conversations, and unforgettable experiences shared amongst friends old and new.
