EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic receipt from Maple & Company Ltd, an iconic engraving by the English School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of retail and trade during that era. The receipt itself represents more than just a transaction; it symbolizes the grandeur and reputation of Maple & Company Ltd as "the largest and most convenient furnishing establishment in the world" located on Tottenham Court Road in London. This renowned company was known for its exquisite furniture, making this document all the more intriguing. Printed ephemera like this receipt offers us a unique perspective on how commerce operated back then. It serves as evidence of past transactions, showcasing not only financial details but also providing insights into consumer preferences and trends at that time. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are transported to an era when handwritten receipts were meticulously crafted works of art themselves. The attention to detail evident in every stroke speaks volumes about both the craftsmanship involved in creating such documents and their importance within society. Through this photograph, we can appreciate not only the historical significance but also marvel at how something as seemingly ordinary as a receipt can become an extraordinary artifact that tells stories from our past.
