Reptile snake skins. A new west of England industry. Pictured, women measuring finished python skins. 13th January 1933". In this photograph captured by Sunday Pictorial in the early 1930s, we are transported back to a time when a unique industry was flourishing in the West of England - the production of reptile snake skins. The image showcases a group of skilled women meticulously measuring freshly harvested python skins, their hands delicately handling these exotic treasures. The scene is filled with an air of dedication and precision as each woman focuses intently on her task, ensuring that every inch is accurately measured. Their expertise highlights the importance placed on quality control within this emerging trade. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era where craftsmanship thrived amidst industrial progress. It reminds us that even in times when technology was rapidly advancing, there were still industries rooted in traditional practices and reliant on human skill. Beyond its historical significance, this print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of communities during challenging times. It captures not only the hard work put forth by these women but also sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of our past - one that celebrates both nature's wonders and humanity's ability to transform them into objects of beauty.
