Cash Corner Jones Proprietor Store Stores Supply
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this exterior view of C.W. Jones Cash Supply Stores, located at 393 High Street in the heart of East Ham, London. This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the rich historical past of local trade in this vibrant community. The corner store, proudly displaying the name "C.W. Jones" above the entrance, was once a staple of everyday life for the residents of East Ham. The storefront, adorned with ornate woodwork and large display windows, invites passersby to explore the wares within. The "Cash Supply Stores" sign suggests that this was a place where customers could purchase goods on credit, making it an important resource for those with limited financial means. Proprietor C.W. Jones, a man of distinction, can be seen standing in the doorway, likely greeting customers or overseeing the day's transactions. His presence adds a personal touch to the business, reminding us that behind every storefront was a dedicated individual working to serve their community. The hustle and bustle of High Street can be heard in the background, as people go about their daily routines. Horse-drawn carts and pedestrians fill the streets, adding to the sense of activity and energy that defined East Ham in the early 20th century. This photograph is a precious reminder of the history and character that once defined East Ham's commercial landscape. The C.W. Jones Cash Supply Stores, with its warm and inviting exterior, stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of local businesses and their proprietors, who played a vital role in shaping the community we know today.
