EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Dillwyn Street, Swansea, circa 1935. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are instantly transported to an era where cars were a symbol of modernity and progress. The image showcases a typical street scene of the 1930s, with vintage automobiles lining both sides of the road. The traffic lights stand tall amidst the hustle and bustle, their vibrant colors guiding vehicles through this busy intersection. These early traffic signals were a testament to technological advancements and marked a significant shift in transportation management. The charm of this photograph lies not only in its historical significance but also in its ability to capture everyday life during that period. People can be seen going about their daily routines - pedestrians crossing the street with caution while others wait patiently for their turn behind the wheel. As we delve into this visual time capsule, it becomes evident that Dillwyn Street was more than just a thoroughfare; it was a hub of activity and connection within Glamorgan's capital city. This slice-of-life moment encapsulates an important part of Swansea's heritage and serves as a reminder of how far our transportation systems have come since then. Bowman's expertly preserved print allows us to appreciate these bygone days when traffic lights were still novel inventions shaping urban landscapes across Wales and beyond. It is through such photographs that we can truly grasp the evolution of our cities throughout history.
