EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "J.M. Barrie - A Kiss for Cinderella - Policeman Writing," dates back to 1915 and offers a unique glimpse into the past. The image features renowned Scottish author J.M. Barrie, best known for penning the classic children's story "Peter Pan," interacting with students at a Physical Education College in Bedford. Barrie, dressed in a casual suit and holding a cane, is seen bending over a young boy, likely a pupil or student, as he helps him with his writing. A policeman, standing nearby, watches over the scene with a curious expression. The setting, a classroom filled with eager students, adds to the sense of community and learning. This photograph is an intriguing reminder of the author's involvement in education and his dedication to inspiring the next generation. Barrie was known for his philanthropy and often visited schools to encourage reading and creativity among children. The image of him helping a student with their writing demonstrates his commitment to literacy and the importance of education. The presence of the policeman in the photograph adds an unexpected element to the scene, perhaps indicating that Barrie made a surprise visit to the college. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing a moment of connection between the author and his young audience, as well as the unique dynamics of a classroom during that era. This photograph, with its rich historical context, is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on the history of literature, education, or the early 20th century.
