This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases Inspector Helen Hunt and her four male colleagues, Sergeant Frank James, AAC Crisp, PC Robert Calderwood, and Cadet Duncan Crawford, all dressed in their police uniforms from the late 1960s. Inspector Hunt wears the iconic Norman Hartnell style women's uniform, which was introduced in 1968, marking a significant step towards gender equality in the police force. The men, on the other hand, don their traditional uniforms with pride. The image exudes a sense of camaraderie and unity as the officers stand together, smiling and laughing in an interior room. The intricate details of their uniforms are on full display, from the checkered peaked caps to the numerous buttons adorning their chests. The women's uniform, designed by renowned British designer Norman Hartnell, features a tailored skirt and jacket, complete with epaulets and a cap bearing the Metropolitan Police crest. The late 1960s was a pivotal time for women's rights and employment opportunities. The introduction of the Norman Hartnell uniform for women in the police force was a testament to the progress being made towards gender equality. This photograph serves as a reminder of the historical significance of this moment in British history and the important role these officers played in shaping the future of the police force. The officers' poses and expressions suggest a lighthearted moment during their duties, highlighting the human side of those who serve and protect.
