Monkey business on the farm is captured by Jim


2/ 2/2008

OCCASIONALLY Observer photographers grumble about a mundane job they have been sent to cover but, in all honesty, none will ever say the job is boring.

Take the case of Jim Rowbotham, a former chief photographer at the Observer – and a man still hard at work at our sister paper, the Heywood Advertiser, even at the ripe old age of 80!

In March, 1971, Jim was enjoying a rare day at home when the phone rang.
