Mr. Slowcoach weighs in at 336lbs) (1960s, 1966, actions, babies, boy, childhood, children, crawling, decades, reptiles, tortoises) (not the company) (do not mention commercial use) by Varley". In this print captured by Varley from Memory Lane Prints we witness an extraordinary race between a determined young boy and a colossal tortoise named Mr. Slowcoach. The scene unfolds at Flamingo Park Zoo in Kirby Misperton near Malton in Yorkshire during the swinging sixties of 1966. Eleven-month-old Stuart Gibb fearlessly crawls alongside his unlikely competitor as they engage in an exhilarating contest of speed and agility. Despite their vast difference in size and weight - with Mr. Slowcoach tipping the scales at an impressive 336 pounds - both participants display unwavering determination to reach the finish line. This heartwarming image encapsulates the innocence and joy of childhood adventures while also highlighting our fascination with nature's wonders. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary creatures like tortoises can captivate our imaginations and inspire us to push beyond our limits. Varley's expert composition perfectly captures every detail of this unforgettable moment; from Stuart's wide-eyed excitement to
