EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Old King Coal, the universal provider" transports us back to a bygone era when coal was king. The image, taken from The Wonder Encyclopedia for Children in 1933, showcases the vital role that coal played in powering the world during the early 20th century.
In this detailed illustration, we see various scenes depicting how coal was formed and utilized. From steamships chugging along with paddle wheel steamers to wagons hitched up for transport, every aspect of coal's importance is highlighted. The image also features a bustling railway system powered by locomotives fueled by coal, showcasing its significance in transportation.
But it wasn't just about physical movement - coal also played a crucial role in providing energy for electricity and heating. We see fires burning brightly in braziers and furnaces, symbolizing the warmth and light that coal brought into people's lives.
As we gaze upon this black-and-white depiction of Old King Coal reigning supreme as the universal provider, we are reminded of a time when this fossil fuel was at the heart of industrial progress. It serves as a poignant reminder of our reliance on finite resources and challenges us to consider more sustainable alternatives for future generations.
