EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the university constables of Cambridge, affectionately known as the Bulldogs. Taken on 1st March 1954 during their nightly patrol, these dedicated individuals were responsible for upholding law and order among the undergraduates. In earlier times, they even played a significant role in protecting students from being swindled by local merchants. Dressed impeccably in overcoats and top hats, these men exude an air of authority and professionalism. Their gloves suggest a readiness to handle any situation that may arise during their rounds. The backdrop of London adds to the timeless charm of this image. As guardians of both education and discipline, these university constables represent a rich tradition that dates back centuries. They are not just enforcers but also mentors who guide young minds towards responsible behavior within the academic community. Bela Zola's expertly captured snapshot transports us back to a bygone era when nightfall brought out these stalwart figures onto Cambridge's streets. Their presence instilled confidence among students while ensuring harmony between town and gown. This evocative photograph serves as a reminder of the vital role played by university constables in maintaining order within educational institutions like Cambridge University. It is an homage to those who have dedicated themselves to preserving the integrity and safety of such esteemed establishments throughout history.
