EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of 1960s England. The scene captures a dedicated policeman, adorned in his traditional uniform, diligently directing the chaotic August Bank Holiday traffic on the A20. It was taken on the 3rd of August 1964, a day that witnessed an extraordinary surge in vehicles as families embarked on their long-awaited summer getaways. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of this era - a time when bank holidays were eagerly anticipated by all, leading to inevitable congestion and jams along major roadways. Despite facing overwhelming queues and seemingly insurmountable traffic, this courageous officer fearlessly stands amidst it all with unwavering determination. His authoritative gestures command attention from both drivers and pedestrians alike as he orchestrates order amidst chaos. With his whistle at hand and arms outstretched, he becomes a symbol of reliability and safety in an otherwise frenzied environment. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph today, it serves as a reminder of simpler times when technology had not yet infiltrated our lives. It transports us back to an era where human interaction played an integral role in managing everyday situations like traffic control. Ron Burton's skillful capture immortalizes this moment forever; preserving not only the memory but also paying tribute to those unsung heroes who selflessly ensured smooth journeys for countless holidaymakers during those golden summers gone by.
