EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and prepare to be transported back in time as we take a glimpse into the vibrant and exhilarating world of Nottingham Goose Fair during the 1920s. This photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone era, filled with the sights, sounds, and excitement of a traditional English fair. The image captures the bustling atmosphere of the fairground, with its colorful array of attractions and the anticipation of joy and wonder written on the faces of the crowd. In the foreground, a group of children eagerly await their turn on the Helter Skelter, a towering, spiral slide that promises thrills and laughter. The Victorian and Edwardian era lantern slide, illuminating the scene, casts an ethereal glow over the scene, adding to the sense of nostalgia and wonder. Nottingham Goose Fair, an annual event that dates back to the 13th century, was once a major gathering place for travelers and locals alike. The fairground was filled with games, rides, food stalls, and live entertainment, providing a much-needed respite from the daily grind. The 1920s saw the fair reach new heights of popularity, with innovative attractions and a sense of excitement that drew visitors from far and wide. As we take in the details of this photograph, we are reminded of the simple pleasures of life and the enduring allure of the fairground. Let us cherish these moments of joy and wonder, as we continue to explore the rich history and traditions of Nottingham and beyond.
