EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1896, we are transported back in time to the bustling interior of the Dunlop factory in Belfast, Ireland. The image is a testament to the industrial revolution that was transforming the world, as thousands of pneumatic tyres fill the room, their round shapes creating a mesmerizing pattern. The Dunlop Company, a pioneer in the rubber industry, had made Belfast its home for the introduction of pneumatic tyres. However, the citizens of Dublin grew wary of the factory's presence due to the distinct odour of rubber that permeated the air. Fearing the potential impact on their olfactory senses, the Dublin Corporation took action against the Dunlop Company, forcing it to relocate. The factory's departure from Dublin marked the beginning of a new chapter in the company's history. In 1898, the Dunlop Company moved its operations to Coventry, England, where it continued to innovate and grow. The shift to Coventry proved to be a fortuitous move, as the city became the hub of the British bicycle industry, providing the perfect market for the company's pneumatic tyres. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the industrious spirit and ingenuity of the Dunlop Company during the 1890s. The image is a reminder of the significant role that the rubber industry played in the transportation revolution, paving the way for the automobiles and bicycles that would come to define the 20th century.
