EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from the 1930s, showcasing the art of bill posting in Woolwich, south-east London. The image depicts a group of workers diligently pasting up posters and adverts on a wall using traditional techniques and tools such as brushes and ladders.
The scene is bustling with activity, as men carefully position each poster to ensure maximum visibility for passersby. The historical significance of this snapshot is evident in the meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship displayed by these workers.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where advertising was done by hand, before the digital age revolutionized marketing strategies. The faded colors and weathered textures of the posters add a sense of nostalgia to the composition, reminding us of simpler times when physical advertisements dominated city streets.
This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of Woolwich, capturing a moment that may have otherwise been forgotten. It is a testament to the skill and dedication of those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to bring these advertisements to life.
In essence, this print encapsulates not just an advert or bill poster from the 1930s but also tells a story about community, tradition, and innovation in advertising practices.
