EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the 1930s, we witness the meticulous process of retouching the paintwork on traditional wooden carousel horses, a vital task before the commencement of the travelling fair season in Britain. The scene unfolds in a dimly lit, cluttered workshop, where the air is thick with the scent of fresh paint and the sound of soft brushes against wood. The carousel horses, each with their unique expressions and intricate designs, are carefully arranged on makeshift stands, their once-vibrant colors faded and worn from years of use. Skilled craftsmen, dressed in worn overalls and with brushes in hand, focus intently on their work, bringing each horse back to life with careful strokes of paint. The roundabout, a beloved fixture of fair grounds across the country, is a testament to the rich history and tradition of British fairs. The carousel, with its mesmerizing music and magical horses, has long been a source of wonder and delight for generations of children and adults alike. The start of the travelling fair season marks the culmination of weeks of preparation, from the retouching of paintwork to the mending of broken parts and the polishing of brass. This painstaking process ensures that each ride is not only safe but also visually stunning, ready to transport riders on a magical journey. This photograph captures a moment in time, a glimpse into the past, and serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication that goes into preserving the traditions of the fairground. The 1930s may be long gone, but the magic of the carousel lives on, thanks to the tireless efforts of those who keep it alive.
