It’s said that ‘If you can remember the 1960s, you really weren’t there’ and in truth the majority of readers were little more than babes in arms for most of the decade. Setting that fact aside it’s a decade that still fascinates a huge number of people. As a consequence, finding fresh, I was aware that it was in production and feared that it would simply be a rehash of the more popular images from Mortons archive. Not that there’s anything wrong with the archive, but some of the images do tend to crop up regularly. In fact, only around a third of the images used are from that source and many of those I’ve not seen before; the rest come from Stu’s own archive and those of individuals he’s tracked down over the years. In the days of social media and instant file sharing, Stu’s reluctant to say that many of these images have never been seen before, but I’m an avid consumer of such things and there are plenty that are fresh to my eyes.
