EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to witness a pivotal moment in communication history with this print from Memory Lane Prints. Transport yourself to Sandown Park Racecourse, Esher, Surrey, where the very first Citizen Band Radio exhibition was held. In this snapshot frozen in time on April 4th, 1981, we see two enthusiastic CB Radio enthusiasts, Julie Henderson and Zara Garrett. These young women from Cheam, Surrey embody the spirit of innovation as they gear up for an adventure on a vintage 1909 F N motor cycle with a charming basket sidecar. Their beaming smiles reflect their excitement about exploring the possibilities of CB radio technology. As pioneers embracing this revolutionary invention, Julie and Zara symbolize how CB radios were transforming communication across England and beyond during the vibrant era of the 1980s. With these portable walkie-talkie-like devices at their disposal, individuals could connect wirelessly without relying on traditional telephone lines or commercial networks. This image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire to bridge distances through science and technology. It captures not only an important milestone but also showcases how ordinary people like Julie and Zara embraced new inventions that would shape our future. Harry Fox's expert lens immortalizes this historic moment when citizens became empowered by radio waves—a true celebration of progress that continues to resonate today.
