EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in the industrial heartland of Middlesbrough, England during the 1970s. The image, titled "Its Automatic. Southbank, Middlesbrough 1970s," showcases the intricate dance between man and machine at the Its Automatic factory located on Southbank. At the forefront of the scene, two workers, Robin and Dale, are engrossed in their tasks. Robin, with a focused expression, adjusts the settings on a control panel, while Dale, with a pair of pliers in hand, makes a minor repair on an automated conveyor belt. Their attire, consisting of work overalls and steel-toed boots, is a testament to the physical demands of their jobs. The background of the photograph is a symphony of industrial machinery, with gears, levers, and pipes stretching into the distance. The once-red brick walls of the factory are now covered in a layer of grime, a reminder of the relentless nature of the production process. The room is bathed in a soft, natural light that filters in from the large windows, casting long shadows and adding depth to the scene. The Its Automatic factory was a significant part of Middlesbrough's industrial landscape during the 1970s. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the workers who labored there, their dedication, and the intricate relationship they had with the machines that powered their community. As we look at this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and the resilience of the people who shaped Middlesbrough's industrial past.
