EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London in 1922. Standing proudly on Euston Road, we are transported to a bygone era where horse-drawn carriages shared the road with early automobiles. At the heart of this scene is an Anglo-American Oil Company petrol station, a symbol of progress and modernity. Founded in 1888, this pioneering company began its journey as an importer of lamp oil before venturing into motor spirit from the United States. The range of grades they offered included some sold under their iconic Pratts brand. Little did they know that their legacy would continue to thrive for years to come, eventually transforming into what we now know as Esso. Bedford Lemere & Co. , renowned photographers of their time, expertly captured this snapshot of history. Their lens immortalizes not only the petrol station itself but also the people and transport surrounding it. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the sounds of honking horns and feel the energy pulsating through these vibrant city streets. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to how far society has progressed since those early days when motor vehicles were still a novelty. It reminds us that even amidst rapid change and technological advancements, there will always be remnants from our past that evoke nostalgia and curiosity about our roots.
