EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a page from the Army and Navy Stores Catalogue, dating back to 1939-40. The lithograph print showcases an illustration for the renowned catalogue of Army & Navy Stores Ltd, located on Victoria Street in London. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we are transported back to a time when shopping was done through mail order catalogs. The image reveals a wide array of goods available for sale at the store, ranging from cycle lamps and bells to saddle covers and reflectors. It provides us with a glimpse into the retail landscape of early 20th century Britain, where customers could find everything they needed under one roof. Notably, this particular page highlights products by Lucas King Road Dynamo Sets and Bluemel Noweight Celluloid Inflators. These names evoke nostalgia for cycling enthusiasts or collectors who appreciate vintage bicycle accessories. As we observe this piece of British history, it is important to acknowledge its significance within the context of European culture during that era. While Germany is mentioned in relation to certain items such as German-made tyre levers or Germanic influences on Northern Germany's cycling culture, it is crucial not to overlook the broader historical context surrounding these references. Overall, this print offers us an intriguing window into both commercial practices and cultural influences prevalent in mid-20th century Europe while reminding us of how far retail has come since then.
