EDITORS COMMENTS
A Magical Christmas Carol Party at Londonderry House: An Enchanting Evening of Charity and Camaraderie in 1938 This photograph, taken in December 1938, captures the enchanting atmosphere of a Christmas carol party held at Londonderry House, an elegant mansion located in Kensington, London. The event was meticulously organized by the charismatic and philanthropic Miss Olga Lynn, with the primary aim of raising funds for the Devon Nook Home for Unmarried Mothers. Two of the many distinguished guests gracing the occasion with their presence are Lady Alexandra Haig and Lady Lettice Ashley-Cooper, both dressed in elegant evening gowns and adorned with intricate masks. The masks, a charming tradition of the evening, added an air of mystery and whimsy to the festivities. As the evening progressed, the guests gathered around the grand fireplace, their voices harmoniously blending together as they sang beloved Christmas carols. The room was filled with the warm glow of the fire, the twinkling lights of the Christmas tree, and the infectious laughter and cheer of those in attendance. The Devon Nook Home for Unmarried Mothers was a vital organization that provided shelter, care, and support for young women who found themselves in difficult circumstances. The funds raised from this Christmas carol party would go a long way in ensuring that these women and their children received the assistance they needed during the holiday season and beyond. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the spirit of generosity, community, and joy that defined the Christmas season during the 1930s. It is a testament to the power of coming together to make a difference in the lives of others and to create cherished memories that last a lifetime.
