EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a moment outside Arthurs Corner Shop in Redruth, Cornwall. The shop's proud owner, R. Arthur, stands confidently beside his establishment, which proudly advertises its range of goods: groceries, drapery items, provisions such as flour and barley, and even animal feed like bran and oats. The scene is brought to life by the presence of a young boy standing alongside Mr. Arthur. Perhaps he is an apprentice or a local helper assisting with daily tasks at the shop. A magnificent horse and cart complete this nostalgic tableau; they were essential for transporting goods during that era. It is fascinating to learn that Joshua Arthur was once a traveling draper on Claremont Road in 1902 before establishing this corner shop. This detail adds depth to our understanding of the entrepreneurial spirit that drove individuals like Mr. Arthur during those times. Preserved as part of the esteemed A. K Hamilton Jenkin collection at Royal Cornwall Museum, this photograph holds immense historical value for both locals and history enthusiasts alike. Although we are unable to identify the photographer responsible for capturing this remarkable image from yesteryears accurately, their work has allowed us an intimate glimpse into everyday life in Redruth over a century ago
