EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Between The Wars, we are transported back to the bustling streets of 1940s East End London. A group of hardworking road workers can be seen taking a well-deserved break from their manual labor. Clad in worn work clothes, flat caps, and sturdy work boots, these men epitomize the resilience and determination of the working class during this era. As they pause their arduous task of digging up the road pavement with pickaxes, shovels, and spades, these weary laborers find solace in a momentary escape from their demanding jobs. With cigarettes dangling from their lips and darts in hand, they engage in a friendly game on an old dart board propped against a nearby wall. Despite the evident poverty reflected in their attire and surroundings, there is an undeniable sense of camaraderie among these men. Braces hold up trousers that have seen better days while tools lie scattered around them - symbols of their tireless efforts to build industries amidst challenging times. This evocative image serves as both a historical document capturing life between two world wars and as an homage to those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to shape our cities. It reminds us that even amidst hardship and struggle, moments of respite were cherished by individuals who found joy in simple pleasures like friendship and games. Between The Wars has skillfully preserved this snapshot of everyday life through photography - allowing us to reflect upon the strength and unity exhibited by ordinary
