EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the 1970s, as waitresses prepare for a function in a bustling dining hall. The scene is set with long tables adorned with crisp tablecloths and pristine napkins, while garlands of greenery and flowers add a touch of elegance. In the foreground, one waitress confidently poses with a cigarette in hand, her apron neatly tied around her waist. Her colleagues in the background continue to busily set the tables, their faces focused on the task at hand. The waitresses, all women, exude a sense of professionalism and camaraderie, as they work together to ensure a special event runs smoothly. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of dining hall functions in the 1970s, and the important role waitstaff played in creating memorable meals for their guests. The scene is reminiscent of community halls, schools, and churches where such events were commonly held, and the image transports us back to a time when social gatherings were an integral part of everyday life.
