EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of determination and focus on the face of Evelyn Walker, a trailblazing woman police officer, as she takes the wheel of an open-topped car during a training session in London, 1972. Walker, dressed in her full police uniform, including a peaked cap and badge, wears a white shirt and sits comfortably in her seat, with her colleague, Norman Hartnell, in the passenger seat, wearing a similar uniform and rolling up his sleeves. The image reflects the progressive shift towards gender equality in employment, particularly in the field of law enforcement, during the 1970s. The open-topped car, a symbol of freedom and mobility, adds to the sense of excitement and adventure as these officers prepare for their duties on the streets of London. The photograph, taken during a time when women in uniform were still a novelty, captures the spirit of the era and the courage of the women who broke down barriers to enter this traditionally male-dominated profession. The image is a testament to the resilience and dedication of women like Evelyn Walker, who paved the way for future generations of policewomen.
