EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the spirit of determination and camaraderie among the members of the Girls of the L.N.E.R. Recreation Club as they engage in an exhilarating bout of fencing at Liverpool Street, London, on 27th June 1933. The L.N.E.R., or London and North Eastern Railway, was one of the major railway companies in Britain, and this recreational club offered an essential outlet for its female employees to unwind after a long day on the railways. The women in this image, dressed in their fencing uniforms and focused intently on the game, embody the resilience and athleticism of the 1930s working woman. Their hairstyles, with neatly pinned curls and buns, reflect the fashion trends of the era. The historical setting of Liverpool Street Station, with its vintage signage and bustling crowds in the background, adds an extra layer of intrigue and authenticity to the scene. Fencing, an elegant and strategic sport, was a popular choice for recreational clubs during this time, as it required both agility and mental acuity. The Girls of the L.N.E.R. Recreation Club's dedication to their sport is evident in their poised stances and intense expressions. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the lives of these women, showcasing their strength, unity, and passion for sport in the midst of their demanding work schedules.
