EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of "A Fair, Truro, Cornwall" taken in the early 1900s by photographer Arthur William Jordan. The image transports us to a bustling fair on The Green, which is now known as Truro bus station. In this snapshot of history, we see a vibrant scene filled with cornish men, women, and children enjoying the festivities. The fairground comes alive with colorful buildings and amusements that ignite excitement in everyone's eyes. To the right of the frame stands a banner proudly advertising Jones Variety Exhibition. Posters showcasing acts like The Baby Dancer and Singing & Dancing catch our attention and hint at the entertainment awaiting those who venture inside. As we take in the lively atmosphere, our gaze is drawn towards the background where Truro's magnificent cathedral spire majestically rises above it all. This iconic landmark serves as a reminder of both tradition and faith amidst the joyous chaos. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also offers us an intimate glimpse into life during this era. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when fairs were cherished community events that brought people together from all walks of life
