EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Greater Manchester in the 1970s. In this snapshot from July 18th, 1975, we are introduced to young Russell Woods, a rag and bone boy immersed in his daily trade. Standing proudly on a residential street, Russell is seen with his trusty cart drawn by a sturdy horse. The image beautifully captures the essence of traditional work and youth during that era. With determination etched on his face, he navigates through the neighborhood collecting scrap items for resale. The scene evokes nostalgia for a time when such trades were an integral part of community life. Russell's presence symbolizes resilience and resourcefulness as he contributes to sustaining these age-old traditions. The composition showcases exquisite details - from the worn-out clothes adorning Russell's small frame to the weathered buildings lining the street. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children like him played an active role in their families' livelihoods. As we gaze at this remarkable photograph captured by Sunday Mirror Manchester, we are transported back in time; witnessing firsthand how hard work shaped lives and communities alike. This image encapsulates not only one boy's journey but also echoes countless stories of industrious youngsters who helped sustain their families amidst challenging circumstances.
