EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in Hollywood, California on April 19,1933, we witness the end of an era. Former Ziegfeld showgirl and occasional actress Peggy Hopkins Joyce stands tall as she raises a glass of beer to celebrate the long-awaited end of Prohibition. With her radiant smile and elegant evening gown, Peggy exudes both glamour and joy. As one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood during the 1930s, Peggy Hopkins Joyce symbolizes the spirit of liberation that swept across America with the repeal of Prohibition. Her platinum blonde hair perfectly frames her beaming face, reflecting not only her beauty but also her excitement for this historic moment. Surrounded by monochromatic surroundings that add a touch of nostalgia to the image, Peggy's toast becomes a powerful statement against years of restricted access to alcoholic beverages. This photograph captures a pivotal point in American history when society was finally free to indulge once again. With just one mid-adult woman present in this frame, all eyes are drawn to Peggy Hopkins Joyce as she proudly lifts her glass high. The vintage charm emanating from this print transports us back in time while reminding us how far we have come since then. This remarkable snapshot from Underwood Archives serves as a testament to resilience and celebration—an enduring reminder that even after dark times, there is always cause for cheerfulness and hope.
