EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1907, we are transported back in time to the streets of Ghent, Belgium. The image showcases a remarkable partnership between a dedicated police dog and its handler, both prepared for the wet weather with their matching mackintosh coats. The attention to detail is evident as the canine companion stands proudly alongside its human counterpart, donning its own custom-made coat made from Mackintosh fabric - a revolutionary rubberised waterproof material that was ahead of its time. This engraving serves as a testament to the ingenuity and forward-thinking nature of early 20th-century law enforcement. As we delve into history through this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes clear that even then, order and protection were paramount concerns for society. The Belgian police force took great care in equipping their loyal four-legged officers with appropriate attire to ensure they could carry out their duties effectively regardless of inclement weather conditions. This enchanting engraving not only captures an era long gone but also reminds us of the enduring bond between humans and animals throughout history. It serves as a reminder that our shared journey has always been intertwined with these faithful companions who have stood by our side in times of need.
