EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1950s when The Bertram Mills Circus came to town. Amidst the bustling crowd, our attention is immediately drawn to a worried little boy perched high up in the arms of a stilt walker. With his head in the clouds and pointing towards the horizon, he becomes an unwitting announcer for this grand spectacle. Captured on 1st April 1959 in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, this image encapsulates both childhood innocence and trepidation. As the ringmaster orchestrates daring stunts below, this young observer finds himself going up in the world – quite literally! His wide-eyed expression speaks volumes about his awe and apprehension at being so far above ground. The contrast between his small stature and towering stilts creates a whimsical scene that exudes both height and humor. It's as if he has momentarily become part of this enchanting circus world where anything seems possible. This photograph not only captures a fleeting moment of entertainment but also serves as a time capsule for an era long gone by. It reminds us of simpler times when circuses brought communities together with their mesmerizing performances. As we gaze upon this image by Staff from Memory Lane Prints, it's impossible not to be transported back to our own childhood memories or imagine what it must have been like for that one worried little boy looking down from such great heights amidst all the excitement and wonderment.
