EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A belle of the sideshows attracts the attention of both young and old" we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the Hoppings fair on Newcastle's Town Moor in 1955. The image captures a moment that is both intriguing and controversial, as it showcases a woman who has become an object of fascination for people from all walks of life. The crowd surrounding her is a mix of young and old, their eyes fixed upon her with curiosity and perhaps even a hint of disgust. It is evident that she holds some sort of power over them, drawing them in with her allure and mystique. This photograph serves as a reminder of the entertainment industry during that era, where sideshows were popular attractions at fairs like these. While some may view this scene through a lens tainted by societal taboos surrounding sex and striptease performances, it cannot be denied that these women played an integral role in shaping cultural norms at the time. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate its historical significance without passing judgment or making assumptions about those involved. Instead, let us reflect on how our perceptions have evolved since then while acknowledging the impact these entertainers had on society during their era.
