EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from July 1947, we are transported back to the charming era of the 1940s. The image showcases an unexpected yet delightful friendship between a man and his feathered companion. As we peer into the frame, our attention is immediately drawn to Mick, the owl perched majestically on top of Mr. Ken Clee's head. With its piercing eyes and wise demeanor, Mick seems to possess an uncanny ability - he listens intently to every phone call that comes through at Cardiff garage. This peculiar partnership between man and bird adds a touch of whimsy to our understanding of everyday life in mid-century Britain. The juxtaposition of modern technology represented by the telephone with nature's enigmatic creature creates a humorous scene that brings a smile to our faces even after all these years. It reminds us that amidst the hustle and bustle of daily routines, there is always room for unexpected connections and moments of lightheartedness. This print captures not only a unique bond but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and fascination with animals. It transports us back in time while simultaneously reminding us that some things never change - like our enduring love for creatures both big and small.
