EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from 1873, showcasing a dustman standing proudly with his basket, calling out for custom. The image exudes a sense of community and the importance of collection services during this time period.
The dustman's posture and expression convey a sense of pride in his work, as he offers his essential services to the community. His call of "Dust, ho!" echoes through the streets, reminding residents of the valuable role he plays in keeping their surroundings clean and orderly.
The historical significance of this image is palpable, offering viewers a glimpse into daily life over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of how far waste management services have come since then, while also highlighting the timeless need for such vital tasks to be carried out efficiently.
The presence of the dustman's basket symbolizes both his dedication to his job and the practical tools required for refuse collection during that era. This print by Mary Evans Picture Library is not just an artistic representation but also a window into an important aspect of social history that should not be forgotten.
