EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the enchanting world of childhood, this heartwarming print transports us back to November 1987. Meet young Verity, a wide-eyed explorer who stumbled upon some cherished old friends from Wind in the Willows during an exclusive sneak preview at Rackhams department store in Birmingham, West Midlands. Dressed in her festive costume, Verity's excitement is palpable as she enters the magical grotto adorned with twinkling lights and whimsical decorations. The air is filled with anticipation as she encounters beloved characters from Kenneth Grahame's timeless tale. Mole, Ratty, and Toad come alive before her eyes, their lifelike toys inviting endless adventures within this winter wonderland. As we gaze upon this nostalgic scene captured by an anonymous staff member at Rackhams1016, it serves as a poignant reminder of the joyous spirit that permeates Christmas time. It evokes memories of our own childhoods spent exploring toy-filled shops and eagerly awaiting visits to Santa's grotto. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also embodies the essence of innocence and imagination that defines childhood. It reminds us of the power toys hold to transport us into fantastical realms where anything is possible. Let Young Verity's encounter with these treasured characters serve as a gentle nudge for all of us to embrace our inner child during this holiday season.
