EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of an 1897 advert for W. Thornhill & Co cases. The selection of travelling dressing bags and cases showcased in the advertisement takes us on a journey to New Bond Street, where these luxurious accessories were available. Intriguingly, the image features an array of items that catered to various needs during that era. From straw picnic baskets brimming with delectable food and drink for leisurely outings, to compact vanity sets equipped with bottles, scissors, and brushes for the fashionable Victorian woman on-the-go. The ad captures the essence of late 19th-century life, offering a glimpse into a world where picnics were cherished social events and cycling was gaining popularity as a recreational activity. The meticulously crafted cases presented here were not only practical but also stylish companions for those seeking convenience without compromising elegance. This photograph transports us back to an era when attention to detail was paramount; each case is exquisitely designed and tailored to meet discerning tastes. It serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time while still fulfilling its purpose – enticing customers through visual storytelling. As we admire this snapshot from history, let's appreciate the craftsmanship behind these timeless pieces while imagining ourselves strolling down New Bond Street in 1897.
