EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to a sunny June afternoon in 1938 at Balls Cross, West Sussex. The image captures two magnificent swangoose strutting their stuff with an old transporter standing proudly in the background. The geese steal the show as they confidently display their majestic presence amidst the rural charm of a farm setting. Their feathers glisten under the noon sun, showcasing their vibrant colors and intricate patterns. With heads held high and wings slightly spread, these fowl exude an air of elegance and grace. Meanwhile, the vintage transporter adds a touch of nostalgia to this picturesque scene. Its weathered exterior tells tales of countless journeys across idyllic countryside lanes, serving as a reminder of simpler times gone by. Preserved within the archives at West Sussex Record Office Ref. , No. Garland N17105, this remarkable photograph offers us a glimpse into rural life almost a century ago. It encapsulates not only the beauty of nature but also serves as a testament to our longstanding connection with animals and agriculture. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and historical significance while being mindful that it is not intended for commercial use.
