EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1900 transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Truro, Cornwall. Standing tall and proud is the magnificent City Hall on Boscawen Street, a true architectural gem that has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls. In this particular snapshot, we are introduced to a group of distinguished Truro police officers led by Superintendent Angel. Clad in their traditional Cornish uniforms complete with helmets, these brave men exude an air of authority and dedication to upholding law and order in their community. Perched atop the City Hall roof is none other than John Odgers, the town crier himself. Dressed impeccably in his formal attire, including a top hat that adds an extra touch of elegance to his appearance, he stands as a symbol of communication and connection between the townspeople and local authorities. The identity of the photographer remains unknown; however, their skillful composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured in this historical moment frozen in time. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the image while emphasizing both the grandeur of City Hall and the unity among these devoted public servants. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum today, it serves as a poignant reminder of our shared heritage and reminds us how far we have come since those early days when dedicated individuals like Superintendent Angel and John Odgers played vital roles in shaping our beloved city's history.
