EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled ""Pew for your service" instead of queue is the motto at Laceys Grocery store in Tottenham" we are transported back to October 1944, amidst the chaos and challenges of World War Two. The image captures a snapshot of life on the home front, where rationing and limited supplies were a daily reality. The scene unfolds at Laceys Grocery store, an emblematic establishment that served as a lifeline for shoppers during these trying times. The clever play on words with their motto - "Pew for your service" instead of "queue" - showcases the resilience and humor displayed by both shopkeepers and customers alike. A group of women can be seen patiently waiting outside the store, their faces reflecting determination mixed with weariness. Each woman carries her shopping basket or bag, ready to make the most out of their allotted rations. Despite the hardships they faced, there is an undeniable sense of camaraderie amongst them. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder not only of wartime struggles but also highlights how communities came together in times of adversity. It speaks volumes about human resilience and resourcefulness when faced with scarcity. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded to cherish our present-day abundance while paying homage to those who endured so much during World War Two.
