EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant Petts Wood fete in Kent, set against the backdrop of a simpler time - 1937. The image captures a lively darts game, showcasing the joyous spirit of this rural fairground event. In this snapshot from the past, we witness a group of children fully immersed in the excitement of throwing darts at a dartboard. Their animated expressions and playful gestures reveal their enthusiasm for this classic fairground game. Dressed in charming costumes that reflect the fashion trends of the era, these youngsters add an extra layer of nostalgia to the scene. The monochrome aesthetic enhances both the timeless quality and historical significance of this photograph by John Topham. As we gaze upon it, we are transported to an era between two world wars - a period known as "the thirties". This image serves as a visual portal into European life during that tumultuous time. Preserved through Europeana Photography, this remarkable piece offers us not only a glimpse into rural life but also invites contemplation on how simple pleasures like playing darts can bring people together across generations. Let us cherish such moments frozen in time and appreciate their enduring beauty beyond any commercial use or context they may hold today.
