EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing the grandeur of the Hearts of Oak Benefit Society head offices in London. The image, taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, showcases a postcard that was part of a private collection. The historical significance of this photograph is evident as we learn that these magnificent offices were opened by none other than Edward VII himself in 1906. The building stands tall and proud, exuding an air of importance and elegance. Postcards like these were popular during this era, serving as mementos or tokens to commemorate significant events or places. This particular postcard holds immense value due to its connection with such a prestigious society. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to a period when cards and insurance companies played crucial roles in society. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then while also appreciating our rich history. With its intricate details captured through photography, this print allows us to appreciate not only the architecture but also the artistry behind it all. Preserved for generations to come, it reminds us of our roots and pays homage to an important chapter in London's history – one where hearts were made strong like oak within these walls.
