EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of Mac Fisheries Poulterers in Cheltenham during the festive season of the 1930s. The image shows customers placing orders for their Christmas meats, with a variety of locally-reared poultry and game birds on display. Mac Fisheries was a well-known and respected poulterer in the town, renowned for its high-quality, home-fed chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, capons, English pheasants, rabbits, hares, and oysters. The scene is filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of the holiday season. Customers, dressed in their Sunday best, huddle around the counter, placing their orders and discussing their holiday menus with the friendly and knowledgeable staff. In the background, a large display case showcases the freshness and quality of the poultry and game, while the butcher's block is piled high with birds, ready to be plucked and prepared for collection. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its depiction of a bygone era, when local butchers and poulterers played a vital role in the community. Mac Fisheries, like many similar businesses, provided families with the freshest, locally-sourced produce for their holiday feasts. The photograph also highlights the importance of tradition and the connection between the consumer and their food source, a connection that is increasingly rare in today's commercial food industry. The warm and inviting atmosphere of Mac Fisheries Poulterers is a reminder of the simple pleasures of the past and the joy of gathering around the table with loved ones to share a delicious, home-cooked meal during the holiday season.
