EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1895 and 1910, showcases the interior of Baker and Rouse shop located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a bustling Australian shop during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The shop, filled with an array of photographic supplies and equipment, is a testament to the burgeoning photographic industry during this period. The shopkeeper, dressed in a crisp shirt and waistcoat, stands behind the counter, attentively assisting a customer. A cash register sits prominently on the counter, evidence of the shop's commercial transactions. Several men, likely shop workers or fellow customers, mill about the store, engaged in animated conversation. The shop's walls are adorned with various signs, including one for "Dry Plate Negatives - Glass 8 x 10 in." The use of dry plate photography, a common photographic process during this era, further underscores the shop's significance in the photographic community. This photograph, taken as a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress. It offers a rare and intriguing look into the past, providing a glimpse into the daily life and commerce of Sydney during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
