EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming town of Crawley in Sussex, England, circa 1936. The focal point is none other than The George Hotel, a historic coaching inn that has stood proudly on the High Street for centuries. Its origins can be traced as far back as 1450, making it a true testament to British heritage. The image showcases the hotel's beautiful half-timbered facade, adorned with vibrant window boxes bursting with flowers. A group of men stands outside, adding life and character to the scene. Their presence reminds us of the inn's rich history as a popular gathering spot for locals and travelers alike. As we delve into this snapshot from yesteryear, we are transported to an era when cigarette cards were collected by enthusiasts across Britain. This particular print was part of W. D. & H. O. Wills' "Old Inns - A Series of 40" collection in 1936. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse of a bygone time – one filled with old-fashioned charm and architectural marvels that have endured through centuries. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there are places like The George Hotel that stand steadfastly rooted in their past while embracing the present.
