EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1938, where we find ourselves immersed in the bustling world of poultry at the Sussex Show. The image showcases a myriad of small wooden framed cages neatly arranged at Kingsham, each housing a unique breed of chicken or hen. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that this display represents an era when factory farming was yet to dominate the industry. Instead, these charming coops symbolize a more traditional approach to poultry rearing - one that emphasizes individual care and attention for each bird. The photograph is part of the esteemed George Garland Collection housed at West Sussex Record Office. Its inclusion in this collection speaks volumes about its historical significance and value as a testament to our agricultural heritage. While details about commercial use are omitted here, what remains clear is how this image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the dedication and passion exhibited by poultry enthusiasts during that period. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements within farming practices. In conclusion, this remarkable print encapsulates both nostalgia and admiration for those who dedicated their lives to raising these magnificent creatures with love and care.
