EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The town with a shipyard on its mind - workers at Cammell Laird in Birkenhead" we are transported back to May 1970, immersing ourselves in the atmosphere of an era defined by industry and hard work. The image captures a group of dedicated workers at the renowned shipyard, their faces reflecting a mix of determination and contemplation as they ponder their future. Amidst billows of smoke from cigarettes and pipes, these laborers find solace in brief moments of respite from their demanding tasks. With pints of ale clasped firmly in hand, they gather together to share stories, laughter, and perhaps even concerns about the uncertain times that lie ahead. Their camaraderie is palpable; it speaks volumes about the strength found within communities built around shared trades.

It encapsulates an entire way of life centered around hard graft and dedication to craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but reflect on how much has changed since then – both for these individuals captured forever within its frame and for our world as a whole.
