EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by Central News, we are transported back to the early 20th century in London. The photograph titled "A Great Beaver Joke, London Police Deceived Mr Albert Close of Ilford" tells a fascinating tale of deception and determination. The image showcases Mr Albert Close, a man from Ilford who was initially excluded from the royal commission on awards. However, undeterred by his exclusion, he devised an ingenious plan to gain entry once again. Wearing a false beard and moustache as his disguise, Mr Close managed to outsmart the vigilant London police force. This photograph not only captures the moment when Mr Close successfully infiltrated the commission but also reveals his mischievous smile that hints at the thrill of pulling off such a daring feat. The monochrome tones add depth and nostalgia to this historic moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this intriguing portrait, we can't help but be reminded of the lengths people would go to achieve their goals during that era. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness even in challenging circumstances. Central News has masterfully preserved this extraordinary slice of history through their Europeana photography collection. This print is not just an image; it's a gateway into an era filled with secrets, surprises, and unforgettable stories like that of Mr Albert Close's great beaver joke.
