EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era at Liverpool Street Station. Standing proudly in the bustling station, this clock may not tell you the time, but it holds an intriguing secret. Removed from its original place on the station roof during the early months of war for safety reasons, it has now been transformed into an invaluable enquiry office for the public. In this snapshot from the 1950s, we see a woman with a suitcase standing beside this unique clock. The image evokes a sense of adventure and travel, as if she is about to embark on a journey to unknown destinations. Perhaps she seeks guidance or information from this repurposed timepiece turned enquiry office. During World War II, when uncertainty loomed over London's skies, this clock served yet another purpose - doubling as a sales counter for savings certificates. It played an important role in encouraging citizens to invest their money wisely amidst challenging times. This photograph by Mirrorpix transports us back in time and offers glimpses into how everyday objects were adapted to serve different needs during extraordinary circumstances. It reminds us that even in times of adversity, innovation and resourcefulness can prevail. As we admire this remarkable piece of history frozen in time through Memory Lane Prints' lens, let our curiosity be piqued by what stories lie behind each person who approached this clock-turned-enquiry-office seeking answers or assistance.
