EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 20th century at the Model Engineer Exhibition held at the Royal Horticultural Hall in Westminster. The image captures a moment of skill and camaraderie between two young boys amidst a bustling crowd. Derek Martin, a talented 14-year-old from High Wycombe, takes center stage as he demonstrates his wood turning expertise to Ronnie O'Donnell, an eager 12-year-old observer. Derek's hands move with precision and confidence as he transforms a simple block of elm into an exquisite fruit bowl on his lathe. The concentration etched on both boys' faces is palpable, showcasing their dedication to honing their craft. Dressed in their school uniforms, they stand out amongst the sea of visitors who have come to witness this remarkable exhibition. This photograph not only captures a snapshot of history but also highlights the importance of fostering skills and craftsmanship among younger generations. It serves as a reminder that even in an era dominated by technological advancements, traditional trades such as woodworking continue to hold value and inspire awe. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded of the power of knowledge-sharing and mentorship – how one person's passion can ignite curiosity in another. Through exhibitions like these, children like Derek and Ronnie were given opportunities for growth outside classroom walls – experiences that would shape them into skilled individuals capable of leaving lasting impressions on future generations.
