EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black-and-white print from May 1955, we are transported back to the gala opening of the Festival gardens in Battersea. The image captures a merry party of stars, their infectious laughter echoing through the air as they embark on an exhilarating adventure down the water-chute. At the center of attention are two radiant women, Hazel Graeme-Harrison on the left and Norma Arnould on the right. Their beaming smiles reflect pure delight as they embrace this thrilling moment together. It is evident that these friends have found solace and happiness amidst London's bustling inner boroughs. The photograph encapsulates all that was cherished about 20th-century amusements - carefree days spent with loved ones, relishing every second of shared laughter and excitement. As they glide down the log flume, water splashing around them, time seems to stand still for these vivacious girls. This snapshot serves as a reminder of simpler times when fairgrounds were magical realms where dreams came true. The festival rides provided an escape from daily routines and offered moments filled with unadulterated joy. Let us cherish this remarkable memory captured by Mirrorpix's lens - a testament to enduring friendships, youthful exuberance, and unforgettable adventures in London's vibrant heartland during one sunny day in May 1955.
