EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1960s in Cardiff, where road safety was of utmost importance. The image showcases a remarkable individual named Mr Isaac Bacon, a 74-year-old lollipop man from Gabalfa. With his trusty lollipop sign held high and a warm smile on his face, Mr Bacon dedicates himself to ensuring the safety of children attending St Josephs Convent School. The scene unfolds on a bustling North Road as children eagerly make their way across the street under Mr Bacon's watchful eye. His presence is not only reassuring but also serves as a reminder to drivers to stop and allow these young learners safe passage. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the vital role that dedicated individuals like Mr Bacon played in safeguarding our communities during an era when road safety education was paramount. As we admire this timeless photograph by Alan Grist, it becomes evident that beyond its historical significance lies an enduring message: the importance of vigilance and care when it comes to protecting our most vulnerable members - our children. Let us cherish those unsung heroes who have devoted themselves selflessly for generations past and present, ensuring that every child can navigate their journey through life safely.
