EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. In the heart of Drury Lane stands Mr Bayliss' cook shop, a haven for discharged convicts seeking solace after their release from prison. This unique establishment provided not only warm meals but also shelter and support to those in need. Amidst this vibrant scene, we catch a glimpse of Ramo Sammy, an intriguing local character known as the tam-tam man. Dressed in traditional Indian attire, he adds an exotic touch to the otherwise ordinary street view. His presence brings a sense of diversity and cultural richness to this working-class neighborhood. The shop window showcases an array of delectable treats that would have enticed passersby - perhaps savory pies or freshly baked bread. Children can be seen peering through the glass with curiosity, their faces reflecting both hunger and wonder at what lies inside. Photographed by John Thompson around 1870, this image encapsulates a moment frozen in time – capturing not only a specific place but also glimpses into the lives and struggles of individuals who frequented Mr Bayliss' cook shop. It serves as a reminder that even amidst hardship, there were pockets of compassion and community where people could find respite on their journey towards redemption.
