EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful image from the 1920s capturing the joy and innocence of childhood. In this charming photograph, a group of young children are seen happily sipping from small glasses, their faces radiating contentment. The caption beneath the image reads, "Happy as the day is long - are the little ones who are strengthened." This photograph is a testament to the belief that proper nutrition plays a crucial role in the growth and development of children. The children are shown consuming a body-building food, a more palatable form of cod liver oil, which was a popular supplement during the 1920s. Cod liver oil was prized for its rich source of vitamins A and D, essential for healthy growth and development. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time, where the focus was on the health and well-being of children. The children are dressed in their Sunday best, adding to the sense of occasion and importance placed on this moment. The fisherman in the background, holding up a fresh catch of fish, underscores the connection between the source of the food and its benefits. The use of emulsion in the photograph adds to its vintage charm, giving it a soft, warm glow. This photograph is a reminder of the importance of nourishing and protecting our children, and the simple pleasures of childhood.
