EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ready for school - April 1943" takes us back in time to a bygone era. The image showcases a young boy dressed immaculately in his school uniform, complete with a blazer and cap. His crisp attire exudes an air of sophistication and pride, reflecting the values of discipline and respect that were instilled during those times. The George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this precious snapshot from history, offering us a glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent in the 1940s. The boy's outfit is reminiscent of college attire, suggesting that he may have attended an esteemed educational institution. Notably, his trousers are turned up neatly at the bottom—a popular style choice during that period. This subtle detail adds character to his ensemble while also showcasing attention to detail and sartorial finesse. As we admire this photograph, it is important to appreciate its historical significance rather than focusing on any commercial use it might serve. It serves as a reminder of how clothing can reflect societal norms and aspirations throughout different eras. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving such valuable records, we are able to connect with our past and gain insight into the lives of individuals who came before us.
