EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from Christmas 1922, the Harrods toy department comes alive with a superb display of toys that evoke a sense of wonder and nostalgia. The scene is set in a spacious and elegant room, adorned with ornate decorations and filled with an array of delightful playthings. At the heart of the display, a sunken garden or pond is home to a charming menagerie of penguins, swans, and moles, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. Surrounding the pond, dolls of various shapes and sizes occupy a central table, their glass cases reflecting the twinkling lights and casting a warm glow over the toys. To the right of the table, a multitude of plush toys, including several lovely elephants and bears on wheels, are artfully arranged, inviting children to reach out and touch their soft, inviting surfaces. The toys exude a sense of joy and excitement, transporting us back to a simpler time when the magic of Christmas was all about the toys themselves.
