EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment at the Baby Show of 1940, held during the Selham Poultry Show. A group of proud mothers stands side by side, each cradling their precious bundles of joy in their arms. The innocence and purity emanating from these adorable infants is truly enchanting. The setting exudes a rural charm, with hints of countryside beauty peeking through in the background. It's as if time has stood still for this snapshot, freezing this cherished memory forever. The clothing worn by both mothers and babies reflects the fashion trends of the 1940s, adding an authentic touch to this nostalgic scene. While it's unclear who emerged victorious in this friendly competition, it is evident that every mother present feels like a winner just by being part of such a special event. Their beaming smiles radiate pride and love for their little ones. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office Ref. , this photograph serves as a testament to the enduring bond between mother and child throughout history. Its timeless appeal transcends generations, reminding us all of the universal joys found in parenthood
