EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, hailing from the archives of yesteryears, transports us back to Invercargill, New Zealand, in the year 1906. The image showcases the Most Southern Gas Lampost and a Hansom cab, a striking combination of antiquity and modernity that once graced the streets of this historic city. Nestled by the tranquil waters of the Dee River, the Most Southern Gas Lampost stands proudly, its gaslight casting a warm, inviting glow. This iconic landmark, a testament to the ingenuity of the past, holds the unique distinction of being the most southerly gas lampost in the world. In the foreground, a Hansom cab, drawn by a noble horse, adds an extra layer of charm to the scene. This horse-drawn taxi, a popular mode of transportation during the early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Invercargill's residents during that era. The photograph's muted colors and intricate details bring the past to life, allowing us to experience a moment in time long gone. The serene river, the quaint cab, and the grand lampost, all bathed in the soft, ethereal glow of the gaslight, create a scene that is as enchanting as it is evocative. This photograph is an exquisite reminder of the rich history and charm that Invercargill, New Zealand, once held, and continues to preserve, making it a must-see destination for history enthusiasts and travelers alike.
