EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene outside John Wilkes Riflemakers at 79 Beak Street in Soho, London, during the 1970s. The year is 1973, and the pavement in front of the shop is filled with people and activity. Cars are parked haphazardly along the narrow road, their tires peeking out from beneath the shadows cast by the buildings. The shop itself, with its distinctive signage and display of rifles in the window, is a testament to the area's rich history of trade. Soho, known for its eclectic mix of businesses and vibrant energy, is on full display in this image. The district's unique character is further accentuated by the period details, such as the telephone booth and the vintage signage of neighboring shops. This photograph, taken by Robert Stallard for The Museum of Soho, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Beak Street was a hub of activity and commerce in the heart of London.
