EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back in time to the era of World War I. The image showcases a group of dedicated munition workers, including the remarkable Frances L. Dickinson, who can be spotted in the bottom row, first on the left. These individuals were part of the workforce at National Projectile Factory located in Templeborough. The photograph exudes an air of determination and unity as these employees stand side by side, ready to contribute their skills towards manufacturing essential munitions for the war effort. Their faces reflect both resilience and pride, embodying the spirit of countless men and women who played crucial roles during this tumultuous period. Notably, this image emphasizes gender equality within wartime industries as it prominently features women among its ranks. It serves as a powerful testament to their invaluable contributions that helped propel nations forward during times of crisis. Preserved meticulously at Sheffield Local Studies Library under reference MP 6485 M, this historical artifact offers a glimpse into an important chapter in our collective history. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us remember and honor all those who selflessly served their countries with unwavering dedication amidst global upheaval.
