Description: | A group of young boys play in Hampden Crescent. Roger Mayne captured the youthful energy of these children on the local Paddington streets among the post-war bombsites and derelict buildings they had made their playground.
Homemade go-carts were assembled from bits of wood, screws, nails and string, and decorated to individual taste.
Mayne often photographed children. As his wife Ann Jellicoe observed, 'he photographed the childhood he had not had'. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | �� Roger Mayne | Subjects: | Leisure Cityscape Home and Family | Temporal: | 1957 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
