EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1936, capturing a significant landmark in British aviation history - Croydon Aerodrome. The image is part of the second series of 48 cigarette cards, issued with Senior Service, Junior Member, and Illingworth cigarettes as a way to commemorate iconic sights of Britain. The photograph showcases the exterior view of Croydon Aerodrome on a sunny day. The aerodrome stands proudly amidst an open field in London, England. Its towering structure dominates the landscape, symbolizing progress and innovation in the early 20th century. Croydon Aerodrome played a crucial role in revolutionizing air travel during its time. As one of Britain's busiest airports at that period, it served as a vital communication hub connecting people across different parts of the world. This image beautifully captures not only the physical building but also represents concepts such as adventure, exploration, and human achievement. Although we do not know who specifically created this remarkable piece of artistry captured on film by an unknown creator; it serves as a testament to their talent for immortalizing historical moments through photography. This print allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and historical significance associated with Croydon Aerodrome during its heyday in the 1930s.
