EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the iconic "Holiday girl" leaps off the hoardings and comes to life as film actress June Clyde rehearses for the prestigious Dorchester Hotel Ball. The London Midland and Scottish Railway's beloved Holiday Girl, known by all, is given a human form as Miss Clyde expertly impersonates her during a rehearsal for the Poster Parade. This enchanting event is part of the British School of Osteopathy's first grand ball held at the luxurious Dorchester Hotel in London. Amidst the bustling atmosphere of 1930s Europe, between two world wars, this photograph captures a moment frozen in time. June Clyde, currently immersed in her film career with British Studios, effortlessly embodies both elegance and charm as she poses alongside the original poster that inspired her transformation. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this image from another era. Preserved by Planet News photographers on April 21st, 1936, it stands as a testament to timeless beauty and artistic expression. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history through our modern lens, we are reminded of how art has always had the power to transcend time and bring dreams to life
