Crossing Dalmatian Jubilee Mark Purpose Snaps Striding Sunny 1935
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from 1935, a smart couple strolls along the pavement with their graceful Dalmatian, celebrating the Silver Jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary. The sunny day adds to the festive atmosphere, as the couple crosses the street with purpose and their beloved pet by their side. The Dalmatian, a breed known for its distinctive spotted coat, adds an elegant touch to the scene. Interestingly, the best Dalmatians of this era, as depicted in this image, had no spots on their tails. This photograph is reminiscent of the 1930s, a time when the south coast of England was a popular resort destination. The couple's smart attire and the Dalmatian's pristine condition suggest that they have just stepped out for a leisurely walk, perhaps to enjoy the beautiful weather and the scenic surroundings. The photograph was likely taken by a photography company such as Sunny Snaps, which operated in various locations during this era. Sunny Snaps and other similar companies would take walking pictures and sell them to the subjects as postcards or keepsakes. This photograph is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the spirit of the Silver Jubilee celebration and the joy of a couple and their beloved pet enjoying a sunny day.
