EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and experience the thrill of a bygone era with this photograph of the Hurry-Scurry slide at the Crystal Palace in Sydenham, taken in the year 1903. The Crystal Palace, an iconic landmark of Victorian London, was originally built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and later rebuilt in Sydenham after the original structure was destroyed by fire. In this image, we see the Hurry-Scurry slide, a popular attraction at the fairground, in all its glory. The slide, made of crystal clear glass, appears to be a daring and exhilarating ride, as riders can be seen hurtling down its steep incline at an impressive speed. The slide, which was likely made of ice or wax, offered a refreshing escape from the heat during summer fairs and provided hours of entertainment for visitors. The atmosphere around the slide is bustling with activity, as fairgoers mill about, some watching in awe as others take their turns on the ride. Children can be seen playing nearby, adding to the lively scene. The Crystal Palace and its surrounding grounds were a hub of excitement and joy, where people from all walks of life came together to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the history of fairground rides and the role they played in bringing communities together. The Hurry-Scurry slide at the Crystal Palace in Sydenham may no longer exist, but its legacy lives on through images like this one, which transport us back in time and remind us of the joy and excitement that comes with the simple pleasures of a day at the fair.
