EDITORS COMMENTS
Step aboard this charming horse-drawn bus of the London General Omnibus Company Limited, as we take a nostalgic journey back in time to the early 20th century. The horse, harnessed and ready to go, pulls the vehicle along the cobblestone streets of London with an air of tranquility and elegance. The bus route is clearly displayed on the side, connecting Islington to various parts of the city. But what's that on the side of the bus that catches our eye? An intriguing advertisement for Pictorial Post Cards by J.J. Samuels. The image of a beautifully illustrated postcard is proudly displayed, inviting passengers to "Send a Picture Post Card with a Difference." This innovative advertising strategy allowed people to send unique and personalized messages to their loved ones, adding a touch of artistry and creativity to their correspondence. Britain in the early 1900s was a time of great change, with the transportation industry evolving rapidly. Horse-drawn buses like this one were gradually being replaced by motorized vehicles, but they still held a special place in the hearts of the people. The combination of the horse-bus's traditional charm and the modern allure of Pictorial Post Cards represents the perfect blend of old and new, making this a truly captivating moment in time.
