Crowds Happy Houses Road Cans Esso Motor Oil Small Boy Toy Car
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Chichester Photographic Collection, we are transported back in time to a joyous moment during an Esso Carnival Float procession. The vibrant float is seen driving through a bustling street, adorned with colorful banners and showcasing the iconic Esso petrol pumps. As the float passes by, it brings an air of excitement and happiness to all those who line the streets. Amidst the cheering crowds and charming houses that frame this lively scene, our attention is drawn towards a small boy sitting in a toy car. With his eyes wide open and a beaming smile on his face, he embodies pure delight as he imagines himself partaking in this exhilarating parade. The image also captures cans of motor oil neatly stacked beside one of the petrol pumps, reminding us of Esso's commitment to providing top-quality products for vehicles. Additionally, a "no waiting" sign subtly reminds viewers that even amidst such festivities, rules must be followed. This remarkable photograph offers us not only a glimpse into the past but also evokes feelings of nostalgia and community spirit. It serves as a testament to how events like these can bring people together and create lasting memories for generations to come.
