EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in London during the 1930s, we witness Father Carless of St Anns Custom House Roman Catholic Church engaging in an unexpected role. As a priest dedicated to his community, he has founded a tote club with the intention of repaying the staggering £11,000 cost incurred for building works at his church. Father Carless stands tall and composed, surrounded by eager men anxiously awaiting their fate. With a sense of anticipation hanging in the air, he diligently pays out winnings while simultaneously putting up the winning numbers on display. His commitment to both his religious duties and this unique endeavor is evident through his focused expression. The image captures not only a moment of financial hope but also sheds light on an intriguing aspect of society during that era – gambling on dog racing. The presence of men from various walks of life suggests that this activity was not limited to any particular social class. Alfieri's monochrome photography style adds depth and nostalgia to the scene, transporting us back to a time when such ventures were seen as innovative ways to support local communities. This snapshot serves as a reminder that even those bound by tradition can find unconventional means to achieve their goals while staying true to their calling.
