EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1933, we are transported back to a simpler time on the farm. The image captures a moment of respite amidst the daily toil, as a father and his young son engage in the age-old tradition of sack mending. This "slack time" job was an essential part of rural life, ensuring that every resource was utilized efficiently. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of a rustic barn door, weathered by years of use. The countryside stretches out beyond, with rolling hills and fields that seem to go on forever. It's a snapshot that evokes feelings of nostalgia for those who long for the charm and simplicity of yesteryears. Both father and son are dressed in traditional farming attire - wellington boots caked with mud, worn trousers patched countless times over. As they work side by side, there is an undeniable sense of camaraderie and shared knowledge being passed down through generations. This print from the George Garland Collection housed at West Sussex Record Office serves as more than just an artifact; it is a testament to our agricultural heritage. It reminds us not only of how far we have come but also invites us to appreciate the hard work and dedication required to sustain rural communities. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel connected to these individuals who lived their lives close to nature's rhythms – learning valuable skills while finding solace in each other's company amid their labors.
