EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Queens Work for Women Fund during World War I, as volunteers work diligently to produce socks for soldiers at the front. The image shows just a fraction of the seventy machines installed in the drawing room of the Fund's headquarters, located in a grand mansion in Piccadilly. The two million socks required for the troops were being produced through the combined efforts of these dedicated women, who gave their time and energy to this worthy cause. The machines, which were used to knit the socks more efficiently, were a testament to the industriousness and determination of the volunteers. The Queens Work for Women Fund was a charitable organization that played an essential role in providing comforts and essential items to soldiers during the war. The sight of women working together in this elegant setting, with the serious purpose of producing socks for those in need, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and resilience of the women who supported the war effort during this pivotal period in history.
