EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from February 1965, we witness a truly extraordinary sight as six mighty elephant seals and one hundred penguins make their grand arrival at the London Docks. Each of these majestic creatures carries an air of strength and grace, with the elephants seals weighing an impressive four tons each. The anticipation is palpable as they prepare to embark on their journey to the Marine Land project at Flamingo Park in Manchester, under the watchful care of Chipperfields Zoo. The image captures not only the sheer size and power of these magnificent animals but also their endearing expressions that hint at a touch of humor. It's hard not to be charmed by the adorable penguins who seem eager to explore their new surroundings alongside their larger companions. This snapshot from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to a time when such unique encounters were rare and cherished. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with wildlife and our ongoing efforts to protect and preserve it for future generations. Let this photograph be a testament to both the beauty found in nature's diversity and humanity's commitment towards creating spaces where all creatures can thrive.
