EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of coal mining in South Wales. Titled "Men with dram, Hook Colliery, Pembrokeshire, South Wales, " the image showcases three hardworking men standing proudly beside a loaded dram (truck) of coal at Hook Colliery near Haverfordwest. The photograph provides a glimpse into the challenging conditions faced by miners during the 1920s. These Welsh laborers epitomize strength and resilience as they navigate their way through this heavy industry. Dressed in traditional caps and work attire, they represent a class of workers who played an integral role in powering industrial growth. The flat landscape surrounding them is adorned with tracks that guide these manual laborers to transport their valuable cargo efficiently. The rails symbolize both progress and struggle within this demanding profession. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that every aspect tells a story - from the loaded dram to the worn-out caps on each miner's head. This image serves as a reminder of the immense contribution made by these men to fueling economic development during an era dominated by coal mining. Preserved for posterity, this print offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our past while acknowledging those who dedicated their lives to such arduous work. It stands as a testament to human perseverance amidst challenging circumstances within one of Wales' most vital industries – coal mining at Hook Colliery in Pembrokeshire.
