EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the quaint village of Alciston in Sussex, during the Easter season of 1952. Every Good Friday, a remarkable tradition unfolded on the road outside the charming Rose Cottage Inn. The villagers eagerly gathered to partake in an age-old skipping contest that brought joy and camaraderie to this tight-knit community. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a group of men enthusiastically participating in this beloved custom. Their faces beaming with excitement and anticipation as they prepare for their turn at skipping rope. With each leap and bound, they showcase their agility and skill while relishing in the festive spirit that permeates the air. The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back to simpler times when traditions held great significance within communities. This cherished event not only provided entertainment but also served as a symbol of unity among neighbors who came together year after year to celebrate Easter's arrival. As we gaze upon this evocative image from Memory Lane Prints, it serves as a poignant reminder of how customs can forge strong bonds between individuals and generations alike. It invites us to reflect on our own traditions and appreciate their ability to foster connection amidst the ever-changing world around us.
