EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Stationery, Crowle & Moss, a beloved butchers and bacon curers establishment located at 8 Pydar Street in the heart of Truro, Cornwall, during the 1910s. The print showcases the intricate details of the shop's stationery, including a letterhead, billhead, invoice, and receipt, each adorned with the distinctive logo of the company and its handwritten addresses. The butcher shop, known for its high-quality pork products, was a staple in the community, providing families with their holiday essentials such as sausages and bacon for their Christmas feasts. The image transports us back to a simpler time, where handwritten details and personalized communication were the norm. The shop's name, "Stationery, Crowle & Moss," is prominently displayed, indicating that the business also sold stationery items, likely catering to the local population's everyday needs. The presence of a pork butcher, bacon curers, and lard refiners in one establishment was common during this era, as these products were integral to the Cornish diet. The rustic charm of the shop's signage, with its faded colors and worn edges, adds to the nostalgic appeal of this photograph. The image serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to shape the food culture of Truro and Cornwall. This evocative snapshot from the past offers a glimpse into the daily life of a bygone era, inviting us to savor the stories and memories it holds within.
