EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting image of Burnley Waddington and Lupton, an early 1900s bookseller in the quaint town of Burnley, Lancashire, England. The photograph, taken during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, captures the essence of a bygone era with its charming display of antique books and intriguing atmosphere. The scene is set in a cozy, dimly lit shop, illuminated only by the soft glow of a lantern slide projector. The bookseller, Mr. Waddington or Mr. Lupton, is seen standing behind a wooden counter, engrossed in a conversation with a customer. The shelves behind him are filled with an eclectic mix of old, leather-bound volumes, their spines worn and faded with age. The warm, earthy tones of the wooden shelves and the rich, musty scent of old books add to the inviting ambiance. The atmosphere is further enhanced by the rustic, vintage decor, including the ornate, floral wallpaper and the intricate, patterned floor tiles. The large, ornate mirror on the wall reflects the scene, creating a sense of depth and spaciousness. The customer, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, holds a book in hand, her expression one of delight and fascination. This photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the simple pleasures of browsing through the pages of a good book in a quiet, charming shop. Whether you're an avid collector, a history buff, or simply a lover of the written word, this image is sure to transport you to another time and place.
