1920s Bucket Cute Girls Rural Pump
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to a simpler time in August 1923. A young child, full of innocence and imagination, is captured in a moment of playfulness as she pretends to water a wooden horse. The charming scene unfolds against a backdrop of rural tranquility, showcasing the idyllic countryside that was once home to countless childhood adventures. With her tiny hands gripping onto an old-fashioned pump handle and clutching a bucket tightly, the girl's determination shines through as she engages in her make-believe world. Her eyes sparkle with delight as she carefully tends to her beloved toy companion, bringing it to life with every imaginary drop of water. This heartwarming image encapsulates the essence of childhood joy and creativity. It serves as a reminder that even simple objects can ignite boundless imagination within young minds. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but be enchanted by the innocence radiating from this little girl. Preserved within the West Sussex Record Office's vast collection, this photograph showcases not only one child's playful spirit but also provides us with glimpses into our shared history. It transports us back nearly a century ago when life was slower-paced yet filled with wonderment at every turn
