These pictures are a sheer delight – so is the photographer’s brief relationship with his subjects. I was gifted a copy of the book and it makes me smile every time I pick it up… the children’s stances and body language are captivating… a far cry from the usual facing-the-camera scenarios. What fun you must have had, Colin! A book, and a body of work to be proud of.

The little guy with the dungarees looks very sure of himself. I wonder what happened to him?

Yes so glad you reproduced these – there are some fine ones, the first one, the two little boys in the next one down and again with hands in pockets and nonchalant shrug, the girls with the so-old faces and the boys with the tipped-up pram. So many of them show real emotion, happiness, pride, companionship, and also the marks of a hard life. Hope to be there Wed.

I use to live at nr London Field in the late 70’s / 80s. I remember their caravans at the other end of London Fields.

What a FANTASTIC series! I really wish I could just *blink* myself across the pond for this.
Wishing all involved immense success with the launch and sales of the book… if THESE are photos that DIDN’T make it, I am certain it’s a great book!

If I lived closer I would come – if only to sample the Truman’s beer.
