EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured on the 11th of May, 1953, we witness a remarkable moment where two iconic figures from different artistic realms come together for a noble cause. Moira Shearer, the renowned red-headed ballerina, and Neville Shute, the well-known author, are seen autographing books in support of the National Fund for Polio Research at Harrods. The image exudes an air of elegance as both personalities sit side by side at a table adorned with stacks of their literary works. Moira Shearer radiates grace in her ballet attire while Neville Shute appears distinguished in his suit and tie. Their shared dedication to raising funds for polio research is evident through their focused expressions as they sign each book with care. Notably present are copies of Kent: A Chronicle of the Century 1950-74 authored by Shute himself. The gloves worn by both individuals add an intimate touch to this scene; they symbolize their commitment to making a difference in combating polio's devastating effects. This photograph captures not only the collaboration between two celebrated artists but also serves as a testament to humanity's collective effort towards eradicating diseases that afflict society. It stands as a timeless reminder that even those who excel in different fields can unite under one purpose - lending their talents and influence to support vital causes such as medical research.
