EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a scene straight out of a bygone era, showcasing an array of savouries and sauces available for purchase for just sixpence. The image is reminiscent of a time when grocery displays were meticulously arranged to entice shoppers passing by on the bustling shopping street.
The photograph, taken by an English Photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection and was originally featured in "Modern Grocery Display," a practical guide on window dressing and interior display edited by C L T Beeching around 1930. It offers a glimpse into the world of trade and commerce during this period, highlighting the attention to detail that went into creating visually appealing product showcases.
From the neatly arranged jars of sauces to the delectable assortment of savoury treats on offer, this image evokes nostalgia for simpler times when shopping was more than just a transaction—it was an experience. The chef or caterer responsible for curating this display clearly had an eye for design and knew how to attract customers with their enticing presentation.
Overall, this print serves as a reminder of the artistry involved in marketing goods to consumers and provides insight into the culinary trends and practices of early 20th-century England.
