EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Piccadilly in London, on a significant day - 1st November 1925. The image showcases the grandeur of the headquarters of the "Poppy Day" branch of the British Legion, standing tall amidst a sea of people and vehicles. The architectural beauty of this building is truly remarkable, with its intricate details and imposing structure commanding attention from all who pass by. It serves as a symbol not only for this particular branch but also for the resilience and unity that characterized Britain between two world wars. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot in time, transporting us back to an era where life moved at a different pace. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear the chatter of pedestrians and feel their excitement as they go about their daily routines. While it's important to note that this picture was taken by Between The Wars rather than being used for commercial purposes, it still holds immense historical value. It reminds us of how communities came together during difficult times, supporting each other through initiatives such as Poppy Day. In essence, this print captures both a moment in history and a sense of national pride. It stands as a testament to those who have served their country selflessly while inviting reflection on our shared past.
