EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of England in May 1926. The image showcases an old Thomas Tilling Ltd bus, its bonnet up, parked near the Shaftesbury Theatre during a time of great unrest - the General Strike. Amidst this backdrop of social upheaval, a prominent sign catches our attention: "Maurice Moscovitch - The Great Lover". The vintage charm exuded by this photograph is undeniable. It transports us to an era when public transportation was still in its infancy, with vehicles like this bus serving as lifelines for commuters navigating the city's labyrinthine streets. Its weathered appearance tells tales of countless journeys undertaken and stories shared within its walls. The presence of Maurice Moscovitch's name on the poster adds another layer of intrigue to this scene. Known as "The Great Lover" he must have been a popular figure at that time, drawing crowds eager to witness his performances at the Shaftesbury Theatre despite ongoing labor disputes. Preserved through time by Fox Photos/Getty Images, this remarkable print invites us to reflect upon history and appreciate how even amidst turmoil, art and entertainment continue to captivate hearts and minds. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded that every photograph holds within it not only visual beauty but also fragments of untold stories waiting patiently for curious souls like ours to unravel them.
