EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Oat-Meals, 1876" transports us back to a bustling scene of the late 19th century. Captured by the Centennial Photographic Co. , this silver albumen print measures 21x26 cm and is now housed in the Free Library of Philadelphia. The image showcases an impressive display of oatmeal products, including cases, barrels, and bags filled with this staple food item. Framed labels for oatmeal are prominently featured alongside signs advertising other flour-related goods such as macaroni and vermicelli. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element within the composition contributes to creating a vivid snapshot of a thriving dry goods market. Exhibit titles reveal that various companies participated in showcasing their oatmeal products at Agricultural Hall's Building #152 during the centennial year. Tyrell, J. F. & Co. , Pillsbury Charles A. & Co. , and Lagomarsino & Cuneo were among those who proudly presented their offerings from New York City to Minneapolis and Philadelphia respectively. As we admire this historical photograph today, it serves as a testament to both the importance of agriculture in our society and the artistry involved in capturing everyday scenes through photography. This particular print belongs to Photograph Series II held by the Free Library of Philadelphia's collection. Bridgeman Images has preserved this fascinating piece from American history for all to appreciate its beauty while reminding us of our connection with food production throughout time.
