EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the heart of Liverpool's bustling Church Street, this vintage print takes us back to a cold winter evening on the 5th of February, 1968. As darkness descends and the clock strikes 9:30 pm, an army of grit lorries emerges onto the streets, ready to tackle their all-night task of keeping the traffic flowing smoothly. The scene is filled with a mix of iconic landmarks and familiar names that have stood the test of time. H Samuel and Marks & Spencer proudly display their storefronts, while buses and cars navigate through the busy road. The atmosphere is alive with anticipation as shoppers make their way home or continue exploring what Liverpool has to offer. This snapshot from the past not only captures a moment frozen in time but also highlights how essential road safety was even back then. The grit lorries diligently work throughout the night, ensuring that both pedestrians and motorists can move about safely despite challenging weather conditions. As we gaze upon this nostalgic image today, it serves as a reminder of Liverpool's vibrant retail scene during the swinging sixties. It transports us back to an era when Church Street was at its prime - bustling with activity and brimming with life.
