EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Advertisements" takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing a moment in time when advertising played a significant role in shaping our urban landscapes. The image showcases an array of colorful advertisements adorning a mantelpiece, creating a mosaic-like effect that immediately catches the viewer's attention. The photograph is part of a private collection and was taken by an English photographer whose name remains unknown. It originally served as an illustration for The Modern Building Record Volume Three, published by Charles Jones in 1912. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the world of advertising during this era, where various products and services were promoted with great creativity and flair. Amongst the adverts featured are roofing tiles, heating engineers, bricks, cement work contractors, and plaster suppliers - all essential components for construction projects at the time. These advertisements were likely seen on buildings across Loughborough, Leicester, Aberdeen, and other cities mentioned within the caption. As we observe this historical photograph today, it serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time while still remaining integral to our daily lives. Each advertisement tells its own story about businesses striving to make their mark in society. Through this image captured by Bridgeman Images' lensman or woman (the photographer's gender is unspecified), we can appreciate both the artistry behind these vintage ads and their impact on architecture and cityscapes of yesteryears.
