EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a policeman and a policewoman, both clad in civilian gas masks and wearing helmets and uniforms, stand outside Harrow Road Police Station (X Division) in London during a wintry January day in 1937. The year was just before the outbreak of World War Two, and the ominous presence of the gas masks underscores the sense of impending danger and the need for preparation and defence against potential chemical attacks. The policeman carries a canvas bag slung over his shoulder, containing the respirator, while the policewoman holds her mask in her hand. The snow is falling gently, blanketing the scene in a serene stillness, yet the stark contrast between the peaceful winter weather and the ominous presence of the gas masks creates an intriguing juxtaposition. The image is a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the Metropolitan Police Force during this period, as they demonstrated their readiness to protect the public from various threats, including the potential use of chemical warfare. The stripes on their uniforms denote their rank, with the policeman as a PC (Police Constable) and the policewoman as a WPC (Women Police Constable). This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, capturing a moment in time when the world was on the brink of war and the police force was preparing for the challenges that lay ahead. The image is a powerful reminder of the importance of protection, vigilance, and the unwavering commitment of the police force to safeguard the community.
