c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library Title: A Helping Hand: An Old Motorist Gets Assistance from a Policeman to Turn Left, Heading to the Pub This charming photograph, taken in the early days of motoring history, captures a moment of kindness and camaraderie between an old motorist and a policeman. The image, dated back to the 1920s or 1930s, shows the motorist, with a look of determination and a touch of humor on his face, getting a helping hand from the policeman to turn left at a busy intersection. The scene is set in a quaint English village, with a thatched-roof pub in the background, adding to the idyllic and nostalgic atmosphere. The motorist, dressed in a tweed jacket and a flat cap, appears to be struggling with the intricacies of turning left at the intersection, which was not as straightforward as it is today. The policeman, in his uniform and holding a traffic signal, offers a friendly and courteous assistance, making sure the motorist makes a safe and successful turn. The photograph is a testament to the simpler times when people were more connected to their communities and relied on each other for help and support. It also highlights the evolution of motoring and transportation, as well as the role of law enforcement in ensuring the safety and smooth flow of traffic. The image, with its warm and humorous tone, is a delightful addition to any collection of historical photographs, transport, or humor-themed displays. It is a reminder of the importance of kindness, community, and the simple joys of life, even in the face of challenges and obstacles.
