A Whiz Bang Ride - Hilda May's Motorised Scooter Escapade During WWI
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1917, we find Hilda May, a young and spirited woman, boldly navigating the rough terrain of the First World War era on her motorised scooter. The image, taken during the tumultuous period of the Great War, captures a moment of resilience and innovation as taxis and petrol became scarce resources. Hilda, dressed in a fashionable yet practical outfit, dons a stylish hat as she confidently rides her motorised scooter through the sepia-toned landscape. Her youthful energy and determination radiate from the image, offering a comic and humorous contrast to the somber realities of the war. The First World War brought about numerous challenges, and the scarcity of transportation methods like taxis and petrol forced individuals to adapt and find creative solutions. Hilda's motorised scooter served as a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people during this time. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of women during the war. It showcases their adaptability and their ability to overcome the challenges presented by the conflict, making it an essential addition to any collection focused on WWI history or the role of women during the war.
