EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a page from the Army and Navy Stores Catalogue of 1939-40. The lithograph, created by an anonymous English artist, offers a glimpse into the shopping experience during that era. The catalogue was produced for the renowned Army & Navy Stores Ltd, located on Victoria Street in London. The image depicts a variety of goods available for sale, providing insight into the retail landscape of early to mid-20th century Britain. From games and fencing equipment to lawn bowls and sundries, this catalogue offered something for everyone. Notably featured are F. H Ayres' Kensington Set and National Set, as well as products from Taylor Rolph. While this particular page focuses on sporting items such as jacks and bowling sets, it also includes illustrations of various fencing gear like foils, epees, sabres, foil masks, gauntlets, fencing jackets, and single stick helmets. The historical significance of this print is heightened by its connection to Germany. Although not explicitly mentioned in the caption details provided by Bridgeman Images or Fine Art Finder (the source), it is interesting to note that this catalogue was published just before World War II broke out. This adds another layer of intrigue to an already fascinating piece. Overall, this print captures a moment frozen in time - a snapshot of British culture at the brink of war with hints towards German influence within Europe's retail industry.
