EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken on December 5,1925, we are transported back to a bygone era in Washington, D. C. The image captures the heartwarming bond between a mother and her young son as they embark on an enchanting pre-season tour of Toyland. Freddie Hicks, the son of Alien Property Custodian Hicks, is seen eagerly exploring the magical wonderland alongside his loving mother. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing its historical significance. Against this backdrop, we witness the joyous spirit of Christmas come alive through their expressions and gestures. As they navigate through rows of toys neatly displayed indoors, one can almost feel their excitement building up. This vintage print from Underwood Archives offers us a glimpse into an era when shopping for holiday gifts was filled with anticipation and delight. It serves as a reminder that despite changing times and evolving traditions, the love shared between mothers and sons remains constant throughout history. With its vertical composition capturing both figures in frame, this photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also highlights the importance of family bonds during festive seasons. Whether it be selecting presents or simply enjoying each other's company amidst bustling crowds, these two individuals embody the essence of motherhood and childhood innocence intertwined with holiday cheer. As we admire this historic snapshot captured nearly a century ago in North America's capital city, let us reflect upon our own cherished memories while appreciating how traditions have evolved over time yet continue to shape
