EDITORS COMMENTS
A joyful moment captured during the Silver Jubilee year of 1935, this photograph showcases a lively scene of a family crossing the street with great purpose. Dressed in their Sunday best, they proudly display their Silver Jubilee badges, marking their loyalty and celebration of King George V and Queen Mary's 25th anniversary on the throne. The spirit of the occasion is palpable as they stride forward, undeterred by the bustling traffic of the busy south coast resort. The photograph was taken by Sunny Snaps, a popular photography company of the era that specialized in capturing walking pictures of holidaymakers. This particular image, with its lively energy and historical significance, would have made for a cherished keepsake for the family. The 1930s, a decade known for its optimism and sense of adventure, is beautifully encapsulated in this snapshot of a joyful moment during this royal milestone. The Silver Jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary was celebrated nationwide with great enthusiasm, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the excitement and spirit of the occasion. The family's determination to capture this moment, despite the distractions of the bustling street, speaks to the importance of preserving memories and the enduring power of a photograph to transport us back in time.
