EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of High Street, Highgate Village in North London, circa 1910s. The quaint and bustling street is lined with a variety of shops, each with their unique signs and wares on display. The sunblinds hanging above the shops add a touch of character and charm to the scene. In the foreground, a tram glides smoothly along the tramlines, its progress interrupted only by the occasional horse-drawn cart or pedestrian crossing the road. The pavement is filled with people, some deep in conversation, others engrossed in their shopping. The shops themselves offer a fascinating glimpse into the past. A tobacco shop with a large gold "Tobacco" sign and a "Navy Cut" advertisement attracts customers, while a "Wills" sign suggests the presence of a cigarettes shop nearby. A "Capstan" advertisement can be seen on another shop, and a "Flake" sign hints at the sale of chocolate. The buildings on either side of the street are a mix of architectural styles, reflecting the diverse history of the area. The sun is high in the sky, casting long shadows on the road and adding to the warm, inviting atmosphere of this charming London village scene.
