EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to a winter wonderland in Upperton, Sussex, during the festive season of December 1935. A group of cheerful individuals has gathered amidst the enchanting woods, their eyes filled with excitement and anticipation for Christmas. The George Garland Collection beautifully captures this heartwarming scene that emanates joy and camaraderie. A distinguished gentleman stands at the forefront, his walking stick firmly planted on the ground as he oversees the gathering. His long beard adds an air of wisdom and warmth to his presence. Beside him stand two young girls who radiate innocence and merriment as they eagerly collect holly from a nearby bush. The surrounding trees create a picturesque backdrop with their bare branches dusted by winter's touch. The crisp air fills our lungs as we imagine ourselves walking alongside these spirited individuals through nature's embrace. This snapshot from the 1930s not only encapsulates the spirit of Christmas but also serves as a reminder of simpler times when communities came together to celebrate traditions passed down through generations. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office Ref No: Garland N12292, this photograph is an invaluable treasure that allows us to relive moments steeped in nostalgia. Let us cherish this image for its historical significance and appreciate how it transports us back in time, reminding us of the importance of love, unity, and shared experiences during this magical season.
