EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 1930s, offering a glimpse into an intriguing industry that emerged in the west of England - the production of reptile snake skins. The image showcases a group of hardworking women diligently pegging down snake skins for drying on a crisp winter day, specifically captured on the 13th of January in 1933. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness these skilled workers meticulously arranging the delicate and intricate patterns of various snake species' skins. Their focused expressions reveal their dedication to their craft as they carefully handle each piece with precision and care. The photograph not only highlights the unique nature of this particular industry but also sheds light on gender dynamics during that era. It is remarkable to see women taking center stage in such a specialized field, challenging traditional gender roles prevalent at that time. As we admire this historical artifact, it reminds us of how industries evolve over time and adapt to changing demands. The image offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our own progress while appreciating the craftsmanship exhibited by these pioneering women who played an essential role in shaping this lesser-known facet of England's industrial history.
