EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Presentation of a tank in South Street, Worthing, circa 1919. The image showcases the town's immense pride as people gather around a military tank, symbolizing their contribution to the war effort during World War I. Several men dressed in military uniforms stand proudly on top of the tank, representing bravery and sacrifice. In the backdrop stands the majestic town hall, an architectural marvel that serves as a reminder of civic duty and governance. To its right, we see various businesses that were part of everyday life at that time. Goddens Antiques catches our eye with its intriguing display window while nearby is a mews and garage bustling with activity. A shop bearing the name Hilton adds to the vibrant streetscape. On the left side of this snapshot lies Patching & Co. , an undertaker's establishment offering services related to death but also involved in decorating houses for special occasions. This juxtaposition highlights how life carries on amidst both joyous celebrations and somber moments. Preserved within West Sussex County Council's Walter Gardiner Photography Collection, this photograph provides us with a glimpse into Worthing's past - an era marked by resilience, unity, and unwavering support for those who fought valiantly during WWI.
