EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1917, amidst the bustling interiors of Cammell Lairds. In this remarkable snapshot, we witness a group of determined women file cutters engrossed in their work. The image exudes an air of industriousness and showcases the integral role played by women during World War I. The scene is filled with intricate machinery and tools that epitomize precision engineering. These skilled workers are meticulously cutting through metal using files, honing each piece to perfection. Their expertise in handling these edge-cutting instruments demonstrates their mastery over the art of cutlery production. As we delve deeper into this historical gem, it becomes evident that these dedicated women were instrumental in driving forward the war effort. Their tireless efforts contributed significantly to meeting wartime demands for weaponry and munitions production. While colorizing this photograph brings vibrancy to its subjects and surroundings, it is important not to overlook the significance behind each face captured within its frame. These resilient women embody strength, resilience, and determination as they navigate through a male-dominated industry. This powerful visual narrative serves as a testament to the invaluable contributions made by women during times of conflict. It stands as a reminder that history often fails to acknowledge those who worked tirelessly behind closed doors but played an indispensable role on society's frontline
