EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Trade signs: Bankers and Goldsmiths" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 20th-century England. The image, part of a private collection, showcases an array of trade signs that were once used by bankers and goldsmiths to advertise their services. The artwork is a visual feast for history enthusiasts as it features various iconic symbols associated with these professions. From the majestic eagle perched atop the sign to the golden cup, marygold flower, star, golden urn, crown, ring, pearl, and even a pawnbroker's sign - each emblem tells its own story. These trade signs served as visual identifiers for businesses before modern-day logos became prevalent. They acted as trademarks for establishments and helped customers easily recognize and locate specific services they required. The lithograph itself was created as an illustration for Cecil A Meadows' book "Trade Signs and their Origin" published in 1957. This educational work aimed to shed light on the historical significance behind these unique symbols that adorned shopfronts throughout England. As we admire this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness the rich heritage of banking and goldsmithing trades. It serves as a reminder of how visual representations have played a crucial role in commerce throughout history while also highlighting the importance of intellectual property associated with such distinctive emblems.
