EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Trade signs: Clothing and Associated Trades" takes us on a journey through the rich history of trade symbols. Created by an English School artist in the 20th century, this artwork is part of a private collection. The image showcases various trade signs that were once used as visual identifiers for different clothing and associated trades. These signs served as logos or trademarks, representing the intellectual property of businesses during that era. Among the fascinating symbols depicted are rebus puzzles like three wells, sun, hatters, norwich, teasel, woolhook, woolcomb, croppers, teasel brush, woolcard - all intricately designed to represent specific trades within the clothing industry. Other eye-catching emblems include a hand holding a hat (beaver), larwood hotton (golden ball), star symbolizing quality craftsmanship and three bales of wool from Edinburgh. Each sign tells its own unique story about the trade it represents - be it an artichoke symbolizing prosperity or a golden fleece denoting luxury materials. This artwork not only serves as a historical record but also celebrates the creativity and ingenuity behind these iconic trade symbols. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this lithograph print brings to life an important aspect of our cultural heritage. It reminds us of how visual representations have played a significant role in commerce throughout history.
