EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful photograph captures the spirit of fun and camaraderie among the members of a Boys Club in February 1931. Dressed in an array of fanciful costumes, seven boys proudly pose for the camera, each character more intriguing than the next. At the center, a young boy dons the uniform of a News of the World paperboy, complete with a bulging satchel and a knowing smirk. To his left, an Arab-inspired figure, adorned with a headdress and a flowing robe, adds a touch of exoticism to the scene. Next to him, a housewife character, with a apron and a wooden spoon, brings a hint of domesticity and humor to the image. But the most intriguing figure of all is the pajama-wearing Bovril character, who looks as if he has taken a dip in the jar. With a mischievous expression on his face and a spoonful of Bovril in hand, he adds a dash of whimsy and fun to the photograph. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of childhood in the 1930s, a time of innocence and joy, where boys could let their imaginations run wild and create wonderful memories through play and dress-up. The historical significance of this image lies in its ability to transport us back to a time when life was simpler, and the simple pleasures of fancy dress and friendship were enough to bring happiness and laughter.
