EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Page of Advertisements" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century England. The image showcases a collection of advertisements that adorned the pages of The Graphic newspaper on April 20,1895. As we delve into this snapshot from history, our eyes are immediately drawn to the array of products being promoted. A princess hair dryer promises luxurious locks fit for royalty, while shaving soaps cater to the grooming needs of gentlemen in Birmingham and beyond. Great Russell Street proudly displays its wares: lanoline, Mexican hair renewer, and more. The page is filled with intriguing names like S Fitton and W W Greener - perhaps renowned purveyors in their respective fields. Shaving tablets and sticks line up alongside London's WC bread and Son millers' offerings. Moving down the page, we encounter an assortment of goods ranging from soap to biscuits. St Marys Square in Macclesfield boasts J B Williams Co's pomade as well as Carters Little Liver Pills for those seeking health remedies. Amidst this vibrant display lies a gun advertisement by Haymarket's Hovis company – a reminder that even amidst everyday necessities there was room for adventure. This print captures not only a moment in time but also provides insight into society's desires and aspirations during this era. It serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past while reminding us how advertising has always played an integral role in shaping consumer culture throughout history.
