This print takes us back to the charming streets of Truro, Cornwall in the early 1920s. The focal point of this image is a traditional milk cart, proudly standing as a testament to an era long gone by. With its rustic wooden frame and sturdy wheels, it exudes a sense of nostalgia that instantly transports us to simpler times. The milk roundswoman for W. Tunkin, whose base was located at 43 Daniell Street in Truro, stands beside her trusty companion - a magnificent Cornish horse harnessed to the cart. Her determined expression hints at the hard work and dedication required for such a role. Photographer Arthur William Jordan has skillfully captured this moment in time, showcasing not only the practicality of the cart but also its aesthetic appeal.
