EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the essence of air travel in the 1920s, showcasing the Customs Office at Croydon Aerodrome Continental Airport in Surrey. The bustling scene depicts a time when aviation was still in its infancy, yet rapidly growing in popularity and importance.
The architecture of the Customs Office is striking, with its classic design and intricate details that reflect the elegance of the era. The presence of airplanes on the tarmac adds to the sense of excitement and adventure that surrounded early air travel.
As travelers passed through this customs checkpoint, they were embarking on journeys to far-off destinations, perhaps experiencing flight for the first time. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when air travel was glamorous and exotic.
The photographer, Terry Parker, has captured this moment in history with skill and precision, allowing us to glimpse into a world where flying was still considered a luxury reserved for only a few adventurous souls.
This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and accessibility in air travel, while also celebrating the beauty and romance of aviation's golden age. It is truly a timeless piece that will continue to inspire awe and wonder for generations to come.
