EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the talented George Garland in October 1931, transports us back to a simpler time. The image features an elderly gentleman from Upperton, Tillington, exuding an air of timeless elegance as he stands proudly amidst the picturesque countryside. Clutching a sturdy walking stick in one hand and wearing a well-tailored suit that speaks volumes about his refined taste, this distinguished man is none other than Harry Hooker. The enchanting rural backdrop beautifully frames Mr. Hooker's figure, emphasizing his connection to nature and the land he calls home. His weathered face tells stories of wisdom acquired through years of experience and hard work. As we gaze into his eyes, we can almost hear him recount tales of days gone by. George Garland's skillful composition captures not only the physical attributes but also the essence of this remarkable individual. Through this image, we are reminded of the importance of cherishing our heritage and honoring those who have paved the way for future generations. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's esteemed Garland Collection, this particular print serves as a poignant reminder that history lives on through photographs like these – frozen moments that allow us to glimpse into past lives and appreciate their contributions to our present reality.
