A touch of humour from caroonist Police constable s. Hezzlewood, entitled "The van went on a rowdy patrol".

The Years Of The Local Force Recaptured, from an article by Allan Halstead:
This article arose from the publication of a review by two members of the Old Burnley force, later amalgamated with others in the new Lancashire police organisation - Inspector G. Forbes and Police Constable G. Capstick. This review is summarised in the "Articles" sections of this website and a link to this page is shown below.

Four images were included in the 1974 Burnley Express article - a portrait of each of the policemen, a photograph of the Chief Constable, W. H. Smith and his "entourage" and a photograph of an old cartoon drawn by policeman.
