EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of triumph for the winning team of the LCC-LFB Motor Escape Competition held in London in 1937. The image showcases a group of brave firefighters from the London Fire Brigade (LFB), proudly displaying their hard-earned trophy and cups. The firemen, dressed in their full uniforms, are a mix of those wearing peaked helmets and those bareheaded, each holding their helmets in their hands. The team's vehicle, a symbol of their hard work and dedication, is visible in the background. The Motor Escape Competition was an annual event organized by the London County Council (LCC) and the London Fire Brigade to test the skills and agility of fire crews in responding to motor vehicle accidents. The competition required teams to escape from a simulated vehicle as quickly as possible, demonstrating their ability to act swiftly and effectively in emergency situations. The winning team in this photograph has clearly outperformed their competitors, earning the respect and admiration of their peers and the public. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the 1930s era, showcasing the camaraderie and team spirit among the firefighters, as well as their commitment to their profession. The image is a testament to the bravery and dedication of the London Fire Brigade, who continue to protect the city to this day.
