EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - women learning to drive a tram in 1917. In an era when gender roles were strictly defined, this image showcases the determination and resilience of these pioneering women who challenged societal norms. Dressed in their uniforms, these female drivers are seen attentively listening to their instructor, a male figure who guides them through the intricacies of operating a tram. The photograph beautifully portrays the concept of learning and progress as these women embark on a new occupation within road transport. The image not only highlights the empowerment of women but also sheds light on the evolving transportation industry during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder that even amidst times of war (as indicated by its inclusion in "His Majesty the King"), society continued to adapt and embrace change. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this historical snapshot, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and documentary significance. Preserved by HW Wilson, this print is part of an introduction that undoubtedly aimed at celebrating these trailblazing individuals while inspiring future generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of gender equality and how crucial it is to acknowledge those who paved the way for progress.
