EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a piece of history from World War I, specifically in Brentford, London. The Metropolitan Police poster displayed in the image provides crucial information on air raid shelters during this tumultuous time. Dated December 31st, 1917, the poster offers advice and guidance to residents on how to seek shelter and stay safe during air raids.
The historical significance of this image is undeniable, as it serves as a reminder of the hardships faced by civilians during wartime. The stark black and white contrast of the poster against a plain background adds to its impact, drawing attention to the urgency of the message it conveys.
As we reflect on this piece of British history, we are reminded of the resilience and strength shown by communities facing adversity. The Metropolitan Police played a vital role in ensuring public safety during air raids, and their efforts are immortalized in this powerful image.
