EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the heart of the Cold War era, capturing a significant piece of history hidden beneath Peartree House in Gypsy Hill, South London. The image showcases two civil defense workers standing proudly beside the blast-proof door that guarded the entrance to the Nuclear Command and Control bunker. Intriguingly, this underground sanctuary was equipped with essential facilities such as a map room, operations room, and communication room. It served as a nerve center during those tense times when nuclear threats loomed large over nations. This photograph transports us to December 17th, 1982 - an era where fear mingled with preparedness. The man and woman depicted here stand tall against the backdrop of uncertainty that characterized the nuclear age. Their presence symbolizes resilience and dedication in safeguarding their community from potential devastation. They embody countless unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind closed doors to ensure our safety during those uncertain times. Eric Harlow's lens captures not just an architectural marvel but also serves as a reminder of human strength amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this powerful image today, it prompts reflection on how far we have come since then while acknowledging that peace remains fragile even now.
