EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable skill and determination of sixteen-year-old Vera Mary Stone as she blows glass at Prestons on West Street in Sheffield during World War Two. It is June 1942, a time when the world was engulfed in conflict, yet young Vera stands tall amidst the chaos. In this snapshot from history, we witness a teenager defying societal norms by embracing a craft traditionally dominated by men. With her focused gaze and steady hands, she demonstrates her prowess in glass blowing—a delicate art form that requires precision and finesse. As war rages on, factories like Prestons become crucial hubs for industry and production. Women like Vera step up to fill the void left by men who have gone off to fight. They are unsung heroes of the home front—dedicated individuals whose tireless efforts contribute to the war effort. This image serves as a powerful reminder of women's resilience during World War Two. Despite their tender age, they take on responsibilities beyond their years with unwavering determination. Through their contributions to industries such as glass blowing, they prove that gender should never be an obstacle to pursuing one's passion or making a difference. Let us honor Vera Mary Stone and countless other women war workers who played vital roles behind-the-scenes during this tumultuous era—their dedication forever etched into our collective memory.
