Photography — 1955-1965; 2012
Photograph, pigment print
A boy in a school cap and overalls takes a milk bottle from a crate which is probably on the back of a milk float. The initials 'LCS' appear on the crate and the boy's overalls, standing for 'London Co-operative Society'. In the background are railings and a house.
Fred Wilfred worked as Chief Photographer for Hawker Siddeley Aviation during the 1950s. In 1963 he started his own commercial and portrait studio in Hampton Hill. Wilfred was a member of the Richmond and Twickenham Photographic Society and a founder member of the London Portrait Group. Acclaimed for his portraiture and wedding photography, his documentary work, like this photograph, has remained largely unseen.
