EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from the early 1900s, a British middle-class family enjoys a sunny afternoon in their suburban back garden. The scene is filled with the simple pleasures of family life, as the couple, dressed in their Sunday best, sits on a wooden bench, engrossed in conversation. Their young toddler, an energetic and inquisitive boy, adds a delightful touch of playfulness to the scene. The young boy's remarkable outfit and even more remarkable haircut are sure to turn heads. His tall, flat-top hairstyle, which was popular during this era, is meticulously combed and held in place with copious amounts of pomade. His costume, featuring a collared shirt, suspenders, and knickers, is a typical attire for young boys of the time. The family's garden is a picture of tranquility, with lush greenery, colorful flowers, and a neatly trimmed lawn. The backdrop of their quaint, red-brick house adds to the sense of warmth and comfort. This candid photograph offers a glimpse into the social history of the time, showcasing the importance of family and the simple joys of suburban life in the early 1900s. This photograph, part of the Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, was taken by Tom Gillmor and is available for purchase through Mary Evans Prints Online. It is a wonderful reminder of the past, capturing a moment in time that is both endearing and nostalgic.
