EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a captivating scene on Holborn Street during Christmas in the early 20th century. The image showcases a man pushing a pram, which is not your typical baby carriage but instead holds an unexpected surprise - a gramophone! This unique contraption mounted on the pram adds an element of intrigue to the already bustling street. The man in the photo, dressed in his coat and hat, stands out among the crowd as he entertains passersby with music from his mobile gramophone. His portrait exudes charisma and hints at his role as an entertainer. It's fascinating to imagine how this unconventional form of entertainment must have captivated those who encountered it during that time. The historic significance of this photograph is further enhanced by its connection to St John Adcock's book "Wonderful London". Published around 1930, this image was included as an illustration for Adcock's work, showcasing the vibrant culture and entertainment scenes of London. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of both English Photographer's keen eye for capturing moments and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving these glimpses into our past. Through their collaboration, they allow us to appreciate the rich history embedded within each frame.
