EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to Truro, Cornwall, circa 1918, as an awe-inspiring airship gracefully glides over the city. This print captures a momentous event when an SSZ class airship from Mullion made its presence known in the skies above Truro. The photograph was skillfully captured by Arthur William Jordan, showcasing his talent for preserving historical moments. As we delve into the details of this snapshot, we notice the charming surroundings that frame this remarkable scene. On the right side stands Gills drapery store, a bustling establishment next to the former Miners Bank. To the left is the Capital and Counties Bank building, both architectural gems of their time. The image also reveals a glimpse of daily life in Truro during this era. A cornish cart and carriage can be seen on Boscawen Street below, hinting at a bustling town filled with activity and commerce. Intriguingly positioned within this historic context is a drinking fountain water pump—a symbol of community welfare and refreshment amidst progress and innovation. This print not only offers us a visual window into Truro's past but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ceaseless quest for exploration. Let it transport you back to an era where airships graced our skies with wonder.
