EDITORS COMMENTS
Market Jew Street, Penzance, Cornwall, circa 1950s: A vibrant and bustling scene of Market Jew Street in the charming seaside town of Penzance, Cornwall. The name of the street, "Market Jew," derives from the Cornish language, "Marghas Yow," meaning "Thursday Market." In this image, the red cars and motorcycles are parked along the side of the road, their sunshades and sunblinds creating a striking contrast against the sunny day. People go about their business, some stopping to admire the Union Jack flags proudly displayed, expressing patriotic sentiments. At the far end of the street, the statue of Humphry Davy, the renowned Cornish scientist born in Penzance, stands tall on its plinth. Davy, a pioneer in the field of electrochemistry, is known for his discovery of the elements sodium and potassium, as well as his invention of the miners' safety lamp. The image captures the spirit of a bygone era, with the row of shops, including Rowe Smith, the outfitter, and Barclays Bank, adding to the scene's charm. The street is filled with a variety of vehicles, from scooters and mopeds to cars and motorcycles, creating a sense of movement and energy. The maypole at the center of the image adds a touch of whimsy and festivity, further highlighting the lively atmosphere of Market Jew Street in Penzance.
