EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "In the Box Factory, 1919" offers a fascinating glimpse into the Leicester Co-operative Printing Society Ltd. 's establishment. The image showcases a bustling interior scene filled with women diligently working at their desks in this early 20th-century printing house. Bathed in natural daylight streaming through large windows, these dedicated female workers are clad in aprons and dresses as they meticulously handle boxes and engage in various printing tasks. The composition exudes an air of productivity and organization, with carefully arranged furniture creating an efficient workspace. The room is alive with activity as women sit focused on their individual tasks while contributing to the collective effort of this cooperative enterprise. This photograph not only captures a specific moment in time but also represents the broader concept of women's contribution to industry during this era. It serves as a testament to their skills, dedication, and resilience within the workforce. Preserved by The British Printer journal from 1919, this monochrome print provides valuable insight into historical printing practices and highlights the significance of co-operative organizations like Leicester Co-operative Printing Society Ltd. It stands as a visual reminder of how far we have come while honoring those who paved the way for future generations in both publishing and gender equality within professional settings.
