EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the early 1930s, two Pearly Queens, adorned in their colorful and ornate costumes, enjoy a day out at the prestigious Epsom Races in Surrey, England. The Pearly Kings and Queens are a unique and historic tradition that originated in the East End of London in the late 19th century. The Pearly Queen title was traditionally given to a woman who wore a coat covered in pearl buttons, and was often accompanied by a Pearly King. These costumes were said to have been inspired by the cockle sellers of the East End, who wore pearl buttons as a sign of wealth and success. The Pearly Queens and Kings were known for their charitable work and community spirit, and would often collect money for various causes. They became a popular sight at events and festivals, and their unique appearance and lively personalities made them a beloved part of British culture. In this photograph, the two Pearly Queens, with their pearl-encrusted hats, coats, and shoes, exude a sense of joy and excitement as they take in the atmosphere of the races. The background of the photograph shows the grandstands and crowds at Epsom, adding to the sense of history and tradition. This image provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of these iconic figures and the rich cultural heritage they represent.
