EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Tijuana, Mexico in the late 1930s. The image showcases the intersection of First and Main Streets, capturing a vibrant scene filled with travel, transport, and a touch of nostalgia. In the foreground, we see a group of people strolling along the sidewalk - men and women dressed in fashion typical of that era. A couple walks hand in hand while others browse through various shops lining both sides of the street. The colorful storefronts catch our attention with their enticing advertisements for drinks and Mexican souvenirs. Amidst this lively atmosphere, vintage cars pass by on the road, adding to the charm of this snapshot from another time. A red automobile stands out among them as it cruises down First Street. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also reflects an important aspect of Tijuana's history - its emergence as a popular tourist destination during that period. With its scenic views and vibrant culture, Tijuana attracted visitors from near and far. As we gaze at this well-preserved piece from Western Publishing & Novelty Co. , we can't help but feel transported to an era where life seemed simpler yet full of excitement. This print serves as a testament to how much has changed over time while reminding us to appreciate the beauty found within historical moments like these.
