EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print captured by Freddie Reed, we are transported back to the cozy living room of a home on Ashworth Road in Maida Vale, London. The focal point of the image is Samba, an imposing mastiff with a ferocious appearance. However, appearances can be deceiving as Samba finds herself lulled into peaceful slumber in front of a crackling warm fire. But what truly melts our hearts is the presence of Smokey, Samba's feline companion and best friend. Smokey fearlessly takes on the gigantic task of washing his canine buddy down, showcasing their unbreakable bond and friendship. It seems that every day at this charming abode is filled with these tender moments between two unlikely pals. The photograph was taken on February 19th, 1952 - a time when pets were cherished members of families just as they are today. This snapshot from the 1950s captures not only an endearing scene but also serves as a reminder that love and companionship transcend species boundaries. Freddie Reed's skillful composition allows us to witness this beautiful display of affection between Samba and Smokey for generations to come. As we gaze upon this timeless image, it reminds us that true friendship knows no bounds - even between seemingly different creatures like cats and dogs.
