EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vibrant print is the exhilarating moment of the grand opening of the new water chute at Belle Vue Fairground and Gardens. The year was 1957, and excitement filled the air as a small group of individuals prepared to embark on their first thrilling ride down the glistening slide. Leading the way was Sir Leslie Joseph, the esteemed Managing Director of Belle Vue, accompanied by speedway rider Dick Fisher and his wife Jean. Joining them were Mr J W Betts, the General Manager, retired speedway star Ken Sharples, and Johnny Hoskins, the ever-enthusiastic Publicity Manager who unfortunately lost his hat during this wild adventure. The image perfectly captures a snapshot from an era when fairgrounds were synonymous with joyous entertainment. The expressions on their faces range from shocked to elated as they make a splash into unknown waters below. This nostalgic scene showcases not only moods and emotions but also highlights how amusement parks like Belle Vue provided an escape for people seeking fun-filled experiences in post-war Britain. Preserved through time by Memory Lane Prints, this photograph transports us back to a simpler time where rides like these brought smiles to faces young and old alike. It serves as a reminder that even amidst life's challenges, there will always be moments that allow us to let go and embrace pure excitement.
