EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photo, we are transported back to the Grocers exhibition at the Royal Agricultural Hall in Islington, where a bacon slicing competition is about to take place. The year is 1936, and Miss E M Price of Gloucester stands confidently before a side of bacon, ready to showcase her skills and compete for the coveted title of Britain's champion bacon slicer. This unique event brings together talented individuals from all corners of the country who possess an exceptional talent for precision and finesse when it comes to slicing bacon. Last year's winner was Miss M L Aldou of Stowmarket, setting high expectations for this year's competitors. The black and white composition adds a touch of nostalgia as we witness Miss E M Price poised with determination. Her focused gaze suggests years of practice and dedication in perfecting her craft. As she prepares to make her first cut, one can't help but wonder about the intense concentration required in such a seemingly simple task. This photograph serves as both a glimpse into an era long gone and a testament to the diverse range of talents celebrated throughout history. It reminds us that even seemingly mundane tasks can be transformed into thrilling competitions that captivate audiences across generations.
