EDITORS COMMENTS
A Captivating Display of Skill and Humor: A mounted policeman steals the show at the Metropolitan Mounted Police horse show in Imber Court, Surrey. This print captures a moment of intense competition during the truncheon event on July 7,1937. With over 400 competitors participating, it was this particular mounted policeman who stood out from the crowd. As he confidently rode his grey steed, both man and animal seemed to be in perfect sync, showcasing their exceptional bond and training. What truly sets this image apart is the unexpected twist of humor injected into an otherwise serious event. The mounted policeman can be seen wearing a cheeky smile as he expertly wields his truncheon while riding through the course. It's clear that even amidst fierce competition, there is room for lightheartedness and enjoyment. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie among these skilled riders and their equine partners. Beyond being mere competitors, they share a genuine love for horses and a passion for displaying their equestrian prowess. As we gaze upon this delightful snapshot from between-the-wars Europe, we are reminded not only of the dedication required to excel in such events but also of our shared appreciation for animals' ability to bring joy into our lives.
