1968 Bristol Elderly Fare Shelves Shopper Shoppers Shopping Stacked Supermarket Trilby Wire
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an elderly man in a Bristol Fine Fare supermarket, engrossed in his shopping, as he carefully selects items from the stacked shelves in 1968. Dressed in a worn coat, trilby hat, and carrying a basket, the man's age and the era are clearly depicted through his attire and the rustic display wires that adorn the store's produce section. The wire baskets and simple, unadorned packaging of the food items further emphasize the nostalgic feel of the 1960s. The Old Man's furrowed brow and focused expression convey his dedication to his shopping task, while the dimly lit supermarket and the warm glow of the overhead lights create an inviting and cozy atmosphere. The shelves are filled with an array of goods, from canned foods and household items to fresh produce and baked goods, all displayed in a manner that speaks to a time when shopping was a more personal and intimate experience. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when shopping was a more leisurely and tactile affair, and when the simple pleasure of selecting fresh produce and household essentials could be found in the most ordinary of places, like a local supermarket in Bristol.
