EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to a bygone era, immersing ourselves in the glamour and thrill of horse racing. The image showcases three stylish individuals - Miss C Avent, Miss R Avent, and Mr N Cruickshank - perched on the roof of their car as they watch the Christchurch Point to Point races at Oddington in 1935. Dressed impeccably for the occasion, these racegoers epitomize sophistication with their fashionable attire. The ladies don elegant coats and fur accessories while sporting chic hats that perfectly complement their outfits. Mr Cruickshank exudes charm with his distinguished beard and moustache combination, completing his dapper look with a tailored suit. As they enjoy this exhilarating event from an elevated vantage point atop their vehicle, one can only imagine the rush of adrenaline coursing through their veins as powerful horses thunder past them on the racetrack below. Their anticipation is palpable; perhaps they have placed bets or simply revel in witnessing such thrilling competition. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into society during this period between two world wars. It reflects both fashion trends prevalent among elite circles and leisure activities enjoyed by those belonging to "the country set". Such images serve as invaluable historical artifacts that allow us to appreciate how our ancestors found joy amidst tumult
