EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Advert, Realsilk Stockings" and captured by Terry Parker in October 1926, presents a striking image of a woman in the comfort of her home, engrossed in a book while a salesman, holding a pair of Realsilk stockings, waits at the door. The domestic scene is set against the backdrop of the 1920s, an era of modernity and innovation. The woman, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, sits in a comfortable chair, her eyes fixed on the pages of her book. Her posture exudes a sense of calm and contentment. The presence of the salesman, however, hints at the arrival of something new and desirable. He stands at the door, his expression attentive and hopeful, holding a pair of Realsilk stockings. The real silk stockings, with their smooth, lustrous texture, are displayed prominently, their allure impossible to ignore. The advertisement for Realsilk stockings was a common sight during this period, as the 1920s saw a surge in consumer culture and the popularity of mail-order catalogues. The salesman's visit to the woman's home was a tactic used to showcase the product up close and personal, allowing the woman to touch and feel the stockings before making a purchase. This photograph captures the essence of the 1920s, a time of change and innovation, where the domestic sphere was not immune to the influence of consumer culture. The image of the woman, engrossed in her book, and the salesman, waiting at the door, creates a tension between the old and the new, the familiar and the desirable. The Realsilk stockings, with their promise of luxury and comfort, represent the allure of the new, and the salesman, with his determined expression, embodies the spirit of the sales pitch. Together, they create a compelling tableau of the 1920s, a time of transformation and innovation.
