EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1940s in Shoreham, Kent. The image captures a precious moment of young Jimmy Booker, only ten months old, at his very first victory peal. Every Sunday, little Jimmy accompanies his bellringing parents to the village church where they proudly serve as part of the bellringing team. On this particular day - the 28th of August 1945 - it was an extra special occasion for Jimmy as he got to actively participate in ringing the victory peals. With sheer delight on his face, he stands amidst the belfry surrounded by ropes and pulleys while being guided by his doting mother and father. The photograph beautifully portrays family unity and tradition as three generations come together through their shared love for bellringing. It is evident that this activity holds great significance for them all; a bond that extends beyond blood ties. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when families found solace and joy in community gatherings such as these. This photo serves not only as a testament to Jimmy's early introduction into an age-old tradition but also reminds us of the importance of passing down cherished customs from one generation to another.
