EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 16,1937, we witness a momentous occasion at Romfords Charter Day. The distinguished Lord Mayor of London, Sir George Broadbridge, takes center stage on the left side of the image. His regal presence is accentuated by his elegant robes and tricorne hat, symbolizing his authority and position. To his right stands the esteemed Charter Mayor, Councillor CH Allen, JP. As they exchange greetings in this ceremonial setting, their shared dedication to public service is palpable. On the leftmost side of the photograph stands Miss Marjorie Bainbridge, her stylish attire adding a touch of fashion to this historic event. The significance of this day lies in Romford's charter of incorporation as a borough within the City of London. This milestone marks an important step towards municipal autonomy for Romford and its citizens. Captured by Alfieri during Europeana Photography's exploration into 20th-century history, this monochrome image exudes timeless elegance and captures a pivotal moment in time. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political ceremonies and formalities, human connections remain at the heart of our collective journey through history.
