EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of joy and unity that filled the air during the Pulborough Victory Revels on 10 June 1946. As a symbol of peace and celebration, the May Queen and her attendants are seen gracefully towed along the road by a tractor, accompanied by two sailors and an array of enthusiastic spectators. The image transports us back to a time when communities came together in vibrant village processions, commemorating their triumph over adversity during World War II. The sheer happiness radiating from every face is palpable, as if they were relishing in newfound freedom after years of turmoil. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph serves as a testament to the resilience and spirit of those who lived through such challenging times. It encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an entire era marked by hope for brighter days ahead. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it reminds us of our shared humanity and our ability to come together in times of hardship. It speaks volumes about how even amidst chaos, communities can find solace in celebrations that bind them closer than ever before
