EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Cardiff, Wales in January 1997. Standing tall and proud is Howells department store, an iconic landmark that has been a cornerstone of retail in this vibrant city for decades. The image captures the grandeur of the exterior, showcasing its architectural beauty against the backdrop of a typical Welsh winter day. As we gaze upon this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported to a time when high street shopping was at its peak. The sight of shoppers strolling along, bags in hand, adds life and movement to the scene. It's as if we can almost hear their excited chatter and feel their anticipation as they explore what Howells has to offer. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of a beloved store but also in its representation of an era long gone – the 1990s. This decade marked a turning point for consumer culture with rapid advancements in technology and changing shopping habits. Yet here stands Howells department store, an enduring symbol that reminds us of simpler times when brick-and-mortar shops were at the heart of our retail experience. Thanks to Western Mail Archive's meticulous preservation efforts, we have been granted access to this visual time capsule that allows us to reminisce about Cardiff's rich history and cherish memories associated with one particular establishment: Howells department store.
