EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph from 1907 takes us back to a bygone era of advertising. The image, titled "Advertisement, 1907" captures the essence of the Oxford Historical Pageant held that year. The pageant was a grand celebration of history and culture, and this print served as an advertisement for various businesses involved in the event. The lithograph showcases a bustling street scene in Magdalen Street, Oxford. It depicts elegantly dressed women strolling along the sidewalk while admiring shop windows filled with enticing goods. From costumiers to milliners, ladies tailors to drapers, silk mercers to children's outfitters - every type of business catering to women's needs is represented here. The attention to detail is remarkable; one can almost imagine stepping into these shops and experiencing the vibrant atmosphere firsthand. The lithograph not only promotes individual businesses but also highlights the thriving commercial landscape of early twentieth-century Oxford. As we gaze at this historical artifact today, it serves as a window into both advertising techniques of yesteryears and societal norms surrounding femininity during that time period. This print reminds us how advertisements have always played a significant role in shaping our perceptions and desires. With its intricate details and nostalgic charm, this lithograph transports us back over a century ago when pageants were grand spectacles worth celebrating and shopping was an art form unto itself.
