EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the year 1936, where a momentous encounter between two remarkable individuals unfolds. The image captures the essence of royalty and heroism as Edward, Prince of Wales, extends his hand in greeting towards John Williams, VC. The scene takes place during a visit by the Prince to Ebbw Vale in Wales. As flags flutter in the background, symbolizing national pride and unity, these two figures stand at the forefront embodying different forms of greatness. Edward represents regal elegance and prestige while John personifies courage and sacrifice as a war hero adorned with the Victoria Cross. Their handshake signifies not only mutual respect but also serves as a bridge connecting different worlds - that of privilege and duty alongside one shaped by bravery on the battlefield. This powerful visual encapsulates an important historical moment when societal boundaries were momentarily blurred through shared admiration for extraordinary achievements. Preserved by Western Mail and Echo Copyrights, this print invites us to reflect upon our own notions of nobility and valor. It reminds us that true greatness can be found within every individual regardless of their background or circumstances. Let this image serve as an inspiration for generations to come; may it remind us all that acts of courage deserve recognition irrespective of one's social standing or title
