EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1938 showcases the charm of The Royal Mail in Westbourne, Sussex. In this nostalgic scene, a postman with his trusty donkey and cart stands proudly in front of a row of quaint shops. The postman's uniform exudes professionalism as he prepares to deliver Christmas greetings to the local community. The presence of the donkey adds an endearing touch to the image, reminding us of simpler times when traditional methods were used for mail delivery. The donkey's harness is meticulously crafted, highlighting the attention to detail that was given even to everyday tasks. As our eyes wander across the picture, we notice various shop signs such as EJ Tree - Meal and Provision Merchants and W. A. Gilbys - Wines and Spirits. These establishments served as vital hubs for daily necessities during that era. The festive season is evident through decorations adorning some shop windows, spreading holiday cheer throughout Westbourne. A bearded gentleman nearby captures our attention; perhaps he is one of Santa's helpers or simply a friendly face enjoying the bustling atmosphere. This historical gem from George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office allows us to step back in time and appreciate how essential services like The Royal Mail played a significant role in connecting communities during Christmas time and beyond.
