EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1961, capturing the interior of the Kendray branch of Barnsley Co-op in South Yorkshire. The image showcases a delightful array of early 1960s products, some of which have stood the test of time and are still available today. During this era, self-service stores were gaining popularity, revolutionizing the way people shopped. The Barnsley Co-op played a crucial role in shaping this new style of shopping experience. The monochrome photograph reveals an industrial yet inviting atmosphere with fluorescent tube lighting illuminating rows upon rows of neatly arranged shelves filled with goods. It offers a glimpse into everyday life during that period - shoppers browsing through various items while soaking in the ambiance. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Michael Walters from Paul Walters Worldwide Photography Ltd. , known for his ability to capture historical moments with great precision and detail. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it reminds us not only of how far retail has come but also pays homage to an important chapter in British history - the co-operative movement that aimed to empower communities through shared ownership and fair trade practices.
