EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from September 1911, three boldly dressed collectors proudly pose for a picture during the annual Prince of Wales Hospital Carnival in the vibrant and diverse area of Tottenham, North London. The collectors, adorned in elaborate American Indian and Native costumes, bravely solicited donations for the hospital funds, adding a touch of fantasy and excitement to the important charitable event. Mounted police, clad in their distinctive red uniforms and bearing the Prince of Wales' crest, watched over the proceedings from horseback. The presence of the police ensured the safety and orderliness of the carnival, which took place in Tottenham High Street. The Prince of Wales Hospital Carnival was an annual event that brought together the community in support of the medical institution. The day concluded with a grand collection, where generous donations were made through the use of collection boxes. The funds raised during this event were crucial in providing essential health care and resources to those in need. The photograph, taken by Pete Frost, captures the essence of the day's spirit – a day filled with fun, community, and the shared goal of making a difference in people's lives. The brave collectors, the mounted police, and the lively atmosphere all combine to create a striking image that encapsulates the spirit of giving and the power of community engagement in the service of a noble cause.
