EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting cover of the Dr Barnardo's Homes Carnival Programme and Souvenir Handbook, dating back to 1923, invites us to step back in time and experience the magic of a bygone era. The front design features a heartwarming silhouette of two children, their hands clasped together as they gaze at a breathtaking sunrise (or sunset) by renowned silhouette artist H.L. Oakley. The image embodies the spirit of friendship and unity, symbolizing the bond between the children and the community coming together to support a worthy cause. The Carnival and Fancy Fair, held at Bingley Hall in Birmingham from the 7th to 16th of June 1923, was an annual fundraising event organized by the Birmingham Branch of Dr Barnardo's Homes. This event was a significant part of the city's cultural heritage, bringing together people from all walks of life to celebrate community, friendship, and the joy of giving. The programme and souvenir handbook served as a keepsake for attendees, documenting the lineup of music and entertainment that accompanied the carnival. The event's proceeds went towards supporting Dr Barnardo's Homes, an organization dedicated to helping vulnerable children in need. This cover serves as a reminder of the power of community and the enduring impact of charitable efforts. The image of the children, their hands joined in friendship, symbolizes the unity and camaraderie that brought people together during this time, and continues to inspire us today.
