EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the George Garland Collection, titled "Harwoods Factory Pulburough - July 1942" offers a glimpse into the lives of women factory workers during wartime. In this poignant image, a group of determined young girls can be seen diligently engaged in their work at Harwoods Factory. The scene is filled with an air of resilience and dedication as these females contribute to the war effort in the 1940s. The photograph beautifully captures a momentary respite amidst their laborious tasks, as the girls take a well-deserved tea break. Their tired yet determined faces reflect both exhaustion and determination, highlighting their unwavering commitment towards supporting their country during those challenging times. This historical snapshot serves as a powerful reminder of the crucial role played by women on the home front during World War II. As they stepped into traditionally male-dominated roles within factories like Harwoods, these brave individuals shattered societal norms and proved that gender should never limit one's capabilities or contributions. Preserved by West Sussex Record Office under Ref. No. Garland N21657, this print stands as an invaluable testament to female empowerment and collective strength amidst adversity. It encapsulates not only a pivotal era but also pays homage to countless unsung heroines who selflessly dedicated themselves to securing victory for future generations
