EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Garland Collection, titled "Evacuation Pictures, September 1939" offers a poignant glimpse into a significant moment in history. The image showcases a group of wartime evacuees, primarily children, who were uprooted from their homes during World War II for their safety. Dressed in typical 1930s attire, these young souls exude both innocence and resilience as they face an uncertain future. The photograph not only captures the physical evacuation process but also highlights the presence of evacuee officials who played a crucial role in organizing and overseeing this mass movement. These individuals can be seen providing guidance and support to ensure that each child is accounted for and properly cared for during this challenging time. Preserved by the West Sussex Record Office with reference number Garland N18704, this evocative snapshot serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless families during wartime. It allows us to reflect on the immense courage displayed by these children as they embarked on an unfamiliar journey away from loved ones. While it's important to note that commercial use of this image is prohibited, its historical significance cannot be understated. This photograph stands as a testament to human strength amidst adversity and serves as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and anyone interested in understanding our collective past.
