EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the City of London, on a chilly November day in 1934, a major fire broke out in Farringdon Street, Clerkenwell. The print captures the intensity and drama of the scene as a large office building goes up in flames, with two turntable ladders and 15 pumps working in unison to quell the blaze. The hundred firefighters in attendance needed every ounce of their skill and determination to bring the inferno under control. The smoke billows thickly from the windows of the burning building, obscuring the view of the firefighters' heroic efforts. The crowd that has gathered on the street watches with bated breath, their faces etched with concern and fascination. The onlookers, some of whom are likely employees of the affected building or nearby businesses, form a sea of spectators that stretches down the road. The 1930s, a decade marked by economic hardship and social upheaval, was a time when the London Fire Brigade faced numerous challenges. Yet, despite the odds, the brave firefighters continued to put their lives on the line to protect the city's residents and property. This print is a testament to their unwavering dedication and the importance of the fire service in maintaining the safety and security of London.
