EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the bustling Pulborough Fat Stock Show of December 1933. The image, captured by the talented George Garland, showcases a lively cattle auction with an intriguing backdrop of vintage cars and vans. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryear, we are transported to a simpler era where farming was at the heart of rural communities. The nostalgia emanating from this print is palpable; it evokes memories of a bygone agricultural tradition that defined West Sussex's rich heritage. The crowds gathered around the auction ring reflect the importance placed on livestock trading during those times. Farmers and buyers eagerly inspect each animal, their faces filled with anticipation as they seek out prized specimens for their farms. The juxtaposition of modern vehicles against traditional farming practices adds an interesting layer to this historic scene. It serves as a reminder of how technology has transformed our world since then, yet also highlights the enduring connection between man and nature. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable photograph offers us a glimpse into our past – reminding us of our roots and celebrating the hard work that went into sustaining rural communities through agriculture. It stands as a testament to both George Garland's skill behind the lens and to West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving local history for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
