EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the bustling streets of London in December 1969. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the iconic London taxi, but what sets it apart is its unique feature - an "Inter-Com" system. This groundbreaking communication technology was a rarity at the time, making this particular cab truly one-of-a-kind. Behind the wheel sits Mr. Michael De Fries, a seasoned driver with decades of experience navigating the city's labyrinthine roads. At 60 years old, he exudes wisdom and confidence as he operates this innovative vehicle through Chiswick's vibrant neighborhood. Seated comfortably in the backseat is Shally Moore, a passenger lucky enough to experience this cutting-edge mode of transport firsthand. As she gazes out onto the busy streets passing by her window, one can only imagine her thoughts on being part of such a pioneering moment in transportation history. This evocative photograph captures not just a taxi ride but also represents an era when technological advancements were rapidly transforming our daily lives. It serves as a reminder that progress knows no bounds and that even something as seemingly ordinary as hailing a cab can be elevated into something extraordinary with innovation and vision. Transportation enthusiasts and history buffs alike will appreciate this snapshot frozen in time – an emblematic symbol of how far we have come since those early days when intercom systems were still considered revolutionary marvels.
