Lollipop Man Road Road Safety Safety Schoolchildren
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1960s, a time when road safety was of utmost importance. Standing proudly inside his mobile sentry box is Thomas Glen, affectionately known as the "Lollipop man" at the age of 72. This dedicated individual took it upon himself to ensure the safety of schoolchildren crossing the road. With his high-visibility uniform and trusty lollipop sign in hand, Mr. Glen became a familiar face within the community. His commitment to safeguarding young lives earned him great respect and admiration from both parents and children alike. The photograph captures an era where road safety awareness was on the rise, highlighting how individuals like Mr. Glen played a crucial role in protecting vulnerable pedestrians. The mobile sentry box provided him with shelter against inclement weather while allowing for easy mobility between crossings. This image serves as a poignant reminder of an unsung hero who selflessly devoted his golden years to ensuring that every child reached their destination safely. It symbolizes not only Mr. Glen's dedication but also represents an entire generation's collective effort towards creating safer roads for future generations. As we reflect on this snapshot frozen in time, let us remember those who have worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes to protect our communities' most precious assets – our children – forever etching their names into history books as true champions of road safety.
