Wrong Way Wround Books present ..
Street Photography from Eccles, Salford & Manchester in the 1970s and '80s.
Portrait & Travel Photography
Martin O'Neill was introduced to photography in 1973.
Aged 13, he joined his school camera club and decided early on that he wanted to be a press-photographer.
He began to roam his local streets with camera in hand, artistically documenting everything around him.
These books are a collection of those photographs, compiled into a series of amusing and affordable (£10) editions.
(Ps: He achieved his ambition, getting a job on a local newspaper when he was just 18 years old.).
Reviews
"Amazing value for a fantastic collection of photographs."
"O'Neill's work is brilliant. His story-telling through the lens is second-to-none."
"Manchester has produced some incredible photographers ..
and one of them is Martin O'Neill."
(BBC Radio Manchester)
"O'Neill's books are a flick through history in a well-observed,
light-hearted trip down Memory Lane."
(Peter Dench, Amateur Photographer Magazine)
.
"Just finished all your books.
I can now pronounce you officially as the LS Lowry of Salford
and environs of the 1970s and '80s. Really enjoyed them.
(PS - I'm a great fan of Lowry!)
