In this historic snapshot, we find ourselves immersed in the daily operations of Heal and Son Limited, one of Tottenham Court Road's prominent mattress delivery companies in 1897. The scene unfolds within the confines of a vibrant courtyard, where staff members proudly stand alongside their horse-drawn wagons. Laden with mattresses and bedding meticulously crafted on-site, these wagons symbolize both efficiency and craftsmanship. The horses themselves exude strength as they patiently await their next journey through the city's labyrinthine streets. A sense of pride emanates from the faces of those captured in this image; each individual plays an integral role in ensuring that quality products reach customers' homes across London. From skilled artisans who painstakingly create sumptuous mattresses to hardworking drivers responsible for safe deliveries, every person contributes to Heal and Son's reputation for excellence.
