EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from July 1940, we are introduced to Little Susan Kemp, the daughter of Arthur Kemp, who owned the renowned "Denbigh Arms" in S. W. London. The innocence and joy radiating from her face is palpable as she sits amidst a colossal pile of tinfoil and cigarette packets that were collected over six days from customers. During these tumultuous times of World War Two, even children like Little Susan played their part in contributing to the war effort. In an act of selflessness and compassion, all these recyclables will be donated to the Westminster Hospital—a testament to the resilience and unity displayed by communities during this era. The image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a poignant reminder of how every individual had a role to play on the home front. It showcases both the challenges faced by families during wartime and their determination to make a difference. Little Susan's innocent delight amidst what some may consider mundane objects—cigarette packets—serves as a powerful symbol of hope and resourcefulness during difficult times. This photograph encapsulates an entire generation's spirit: one that found solace in simple pleasures while working towards a greater cause. As we reflect upon this snapshot from history, let us remember those who came before us—their sacrifices, their ingenuity—and find inspiration in their unwavering resolve against adversity.
