EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Bidford Mop, 'Sippers' and 'Topers'" by J. Benjamin Stone takes us back in time to a lively fair in Bidford, England. The image captures the essence of this traditional event, showcasing the customs and people who gathered there. In the foreground, we see a group of individuals known as "Sippers" engaging in conversation while enjoying their drinks. Their relaxed postures suggest a momentary pause from the excitement surrounding them. Behind them, another group called "Topers" can be seen indulging in merriment with raised glasses and animated gestures. The scene is filled with an air of festivity as people from all walks of life come together to celebrate at Bidford Mop. This annual fair was renowned for attracting visitors not only from England but also from Germany and other parts of Europe. It served as a cultural exchange where English traditions intertwined with German influences. Photographer J. Benjamin Stone beautifully captures this cross-cultural gathering through his lens, highlighting both the similarities and differences between these European communities united by their love for festivities. This historic print offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through photography's power to freeze moments in time.
