Milkman, North London, 1926-1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the bustling streets of early 20th century Britain. The image showcases a dedicated milkman delivering what was known as London's safest milk during a time when refrigeration was not readily available in most households. In this snapshot of history, we witness the essential role played by this male occupation as he navigates through the city with his trusty milk cart and churn. With hygiene and safety at the forefront of his mind, he ensures that fresh and healthy milk reaches every doorstep. The presence of a female figure adds an interesting dimension to the photograph, hinting at the involvement of women in supporting their families' well-being. As housewives relied on these deliveries for their loved ones' nourishment, they entrusted their health to these diligent professionals. This photogravure illustration originally appeared in "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock and published by Amalgamated Press in 1926-1927. Its monochrome aesthetic captures both the charm and grittiness of urban life during that era. McLeish's artistic vision beautifully encapsulates an important aspect of daily life from nearly a century ago. This print serves as a poignant reminder of how professions like that of the milkman were integral to communities before modern conveniences became commonplace.
