EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era - the early 20th century, to be exact. The image showcases the Oxford Automobile and Cycle Agency, an iconic establishment that played a significant role in automotive history. The photograph depicts a bustling scene outside the agency's premises on George Street in Oxford. Men dressed in dapper attire can be seen inspecting various automobiles and bicycles displayed proudly on the street. The signboard proudly proclaims their status as official repairers for renowned brands such as Rudge Whitworth Cycles. The advertisement highlights not only their expertise in automobile repairs but also their sole agency for Weston Steamers, which were cutting-edge vehicles at that time. It mentions spare parts availability, emphasizing their commitment to customer satisfaction. The historical significance of this image cannot be overstated. It offers us a glimpse into an era when grease-stained hands and oil-scented air were synonymous with progress and innovation. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements. This print serves as a testament to the rich history of both Oxford and its thriving automobile industry during that period. It is indeed an invaluable piece of nostalgia preserved within private collections worldwide thanks to English photographer Bridgeman Images' dedication to capturing moments like these for posterity's sake.
