EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the enchanting city of Casablanca, Morocco, in the early 1910s, as depicted in this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library. The Place de France, now known as Place Mohammed V, is a bustling hub of activity, with horse-drawn carriages and automobiles filling the streets. In the heart of the square, the majestic Vox Cinema stands proudly, its grand facade a beacon of entertainment for the city's residents. To the left, a carpark is filled with Model T Fords and other early automobiles, a testament to the city's modernization. The square, lined with European-style buildings and palm trees, exudes an air of sophistication and exoticism. The North African coastline can be seen in the distance, adding to the allure of this vibrant and culturally rich destination. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when Casablanca was a thriving hub of commerce and culture in the 30s, long before it became synonymous with the iconic film that bears its name.
