EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures a significant moment in the London Fire Brigade's history as King George VI and Queen Elizabeth make their grand entrance to open the new Lambeth Headquarters in 1937. The King, dressed in a full uniform of the Order of the Thistle, is accompanied by his wife, Queen Elizabeth, who looks resplendent in a long, elegant gown and a diamond diadem. The newly built headquarters, an impressive edifice with modern facilities, was designed to accommodate the growing number of fire stations and firemen in London. The opening ceremony was a grand affair, attended by high-ranking officials, firefighters, and VIPs, who gathered to celebrate this momentous occasion. The firemen, dressed in their uniforms, are seen saluting the Royal couple as they arrive, their faces expressing pride and respect. The photograph captures the spirit of camaraderie and dedication among the firefighting community, as they welcomed their monarchs to their new home. This image is a testament to the rich history of the London Fire Brigade and the important role it plays in the community. The 1930s, with its Art Deco architecture and elegant fashion, are beautifully represented in this photograph, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past.
