EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in 1963, this print showcases the skilled craftsmen at Slack Sellars & Co in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. The image transports us back to a time when the iron and steel industry was thriving in Britain. In this bustling factory setting, bandsaws are being meticulously sharpened by dedicated workers. The men, dressed in their work attire, exude a sense of pride as they carry out their trade with precision and expertise. Their hands confidently maneuver the blades that will play an integral role in shaping metal for various purposes. The industrial backdrop of towering buildings serves as a reminder of Sheffield's rich manufacturing history. This city was once known as the 'Steel City' due to its significant contributions to the steel industry during this era. Photographer Michael Walters skillfully captures both the physicality and artistry involved in toolmaking. His monochrome composition adds depth and texture to every detail within the frame. This photograph is not just a snapshot frozen in time; it represents an era when hardworking individuals fueled Britain's economy through their dedication to craftsmanship.
