A photograph of babies at a show, taken by Saidman for the Daily Herald newspaper on 16 June, 1938. Three babies, supported by their mothers, line up on a trestle table.

A photograph of three babies at a show, taken in June 1938 by Saidman for the Daily Herald.

The baby in the centre seems less than pleased. The show was part of a summer fete held to raise money for Dartford Hospital, Kent.

Two Saidman brothers, Reuben and Barnet, worked as staff photographers for the Daily Herald. Their photographs are simply stamped 'Saidman' on the reverse, making it difficult to tell which of the brothers took the photograph.
