Summary[edit]

Description
English: The husband finds the answer to his problems at a Turners shop in Newcastle. No more sitting in front of a screen for him (TWAM ref. DT.TUR/2/28465H).

You can read a blog relating to these images here http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/engage/blog/turners-saved-my-marriage/.
Tyne & Wear Archives is very fortunate to hold the photographic negatives of the firm Turners (Photography) Ltd. The collection contains many remarkable images commissioned by local firms during the second half of the Twentieth Century. The Turners collection also includes images taken by the firm to promote their own business and this set shows a short series of images taken in March 1962 to promote the sale of cameras in their shops.
They tell the story of a bored husband, his mind numbed by television, and his worried wife. Looking for inspiration, the man passes by a Turners shop window and discovers the wonder of photography. At once his happiness returns and matrimonial harmony is restored.
We’ve no record of the captions used by Turners to accompany these images so we’ve used a bit of artistic licence and created our own. Maybe you can suggest alternatives.
