EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a nostalgic scene from Coventry's Market Way Precinct in the 1960s. The bustling street is lined with sleek vintage cars, parked haphazardly as shoppers go about their daily routines. However, this charming sight is soon to become a thing of the past, as plans for a ban on Precinct parking loom over the horizon. The image transports us back to October 7th, 1961 when life was simpler and car ownership was still a luxury for many. The vibrant energy of Coventry's city center can be felt through the hustle and bustle of people going about their business amidst iconic shops like Woolworths. Intriguingly, this snapshot also hints at another aspect of Coventry's social life during that era - dancing. Just beyond the parked cars lies Locarno Ballroom, part of Mecca entertainment venues where locals would gather to dance the night away. As we admire this photograph today, it serves as a poignant reminder of how our urban landscapes have evolved over time. It sparks nostalgia for an era when motor vehicles were not only functional but also added character to our streetscapes. Soon enough though, progress will sweep away these familiar sights forever; making this print all the more precious in preserving our collective memory of Coventry's bygone days.
