EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque village of Speldhurst in Kent, England, during the summer of 1939. The focal point is "The George and Dragon" a charming inn that stands proudly as a testament to centuries gone by. Its timber-framed structure exudes an air of history and character, dating all the way back to the thirteenth century. Surrounded by lush greenery, this old inn is not only an architectural gem but also a hub of community life. In the background, we catch glimpses of people going about their day—perhaps locals enjoying a leisurely stroll or visitors taking in the tranquil countryside atmosphere. The colorized image adds vibrancy to this snapshot from another era. It transports us into a world where time seems suspended—a moment frozen in both its beauty and simplicity. The cigarette card format further enhances its nostalgic appeal. As we gaze upon this scene captured by an unknown photographer for W. D. & H. O. Wills' "Old Inns - Second Series" collection, we are reminded of Britain's rich heritage and love for traditional pubs like "The George and Dragon". This print serves as a window into our past—an invitation to explore history through architecture and experience the warmth of village life in times long gone.
