EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an Imperial typewriter, a symbol of productivity and communication during a pivotal moment in history. Circa 1935, this typewriter was a vital tool for the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS), an auxiliary branch of the British Army established in 1938. The ATS was primarily composed of women, providing essential support services to the military during times of peace and war. The Imperial typewriter, with its sleek design and sturdy build, was a common sight in offices and homes during the 1930s and 1940s. Its presence in this photograph highlights the role of women in the military during this era, as they were often tasked with administrative duties and record keeping. The image carries a sense of history and nostalgia, transporting us back to a time when typewriters were the primary means of producing written documents. The photograph is also associated with the Women's Royal Army Corps (WRAC), which absorbed the ATS in 1949. This photograph, taken circa 1935, is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of women during wartime, as they took on roles that were traditionally considered the domain of men. The Imperial typewriter in this image serves as a reminder of the critical contributions made by women in the military, both on and off the battlefield.
