EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Duncton Boys at Cribbage - November 1940" we are transported back in time to a cozy pub setting in West Sussex. Four men, their faces etched with character and wisdom, are engrossed in an intense game of cards around a worn wooden table. The ambiance is palpable as the dimly lit room casts long shadows on the walls, creating an atmosphere filled with intrigue and camaraderie. Each man exudes a unique charm that reflects the era they belong to. Their attire speaks volumes about their personalities; one dons an old-fashioned hat tilted slightly to the side, while another sports a cap that has seen better days. These subtle details add depth to their characters and hint at stories untold. The scene captures more than just a simple card game; it encapsulates a moment frozen in time during November 1940 when life was challenging but spirits remained unbroken. It serves as a poignant reminder of how even amidst hardship, friendship and leisure could provide solace and respite from the outside world. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this evocative image invites us to reflect upon our own connections with others and appreciate the timeless joy found in shared moments of playfulness.
