Images of van drivers, traffic jams and seemingly mundane bus journeys in London wouldn’t normally be news worth talking about. However, these endearing and enticing photographs taken by Chris Dorley-Brown provides a wonderful snapshot of the forgotten aspects of everyday ’80s life.

Chris Dorley-Brown has been photographing the streets and daily life of London’s East End since the early 1980s, and over that thirty-plus years has constructed a compelling visual archive of the region. His latest collection “Drivers of the 1980s” is now available to buy here in this book published by Hoxton Mini Press.
