EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in British history - the introduction of motor-cycle police to combat rising crime rates in 1930s Britain. The image showcases a group of determined British policemen, clad in their traditional uniforms, confidently straddling BSA motorbikes. With an air of authority and purpose, these brave officers are ready to take on the ever-increasing wave of car thieves and smash-and-grabbers that plagued the streets during this era. The photograph is reminiscent of its American counterpart, as Britain sought inspiration from across the Atlantic to establish this force. The motorcycles symbolize progress and modernization within law enforcement at that time. Each officer represents dedication to their duty, embodying the values of justice and protection for society. Taken from "The Pageant of the Century" by Odhams Press Ltd in 1933, this image serves as a testament to both historical significance and technological advancement. It transports us back to an era where men like Henry E White played vital roles in maintaining law and order on Britain's roads. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it reminds us not only of our past but also how far we have come since then. It pays homage to those who fearlessly rode into danger on their trusty BSA motorbikes, ensuring our safety while leaving an indelible mark on British policing history.
