EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card from the 19th century showcases the work of R Hoskin, a linen draper, hosier, and haberdasher based in Duke Street, Reading. The intricate engraving captures the essence of British craftsmanship and attention to detail that was highly valued during this era. Printed by Miller in Bridge Road, Lambeth, this trade card served as both an advertisement for Hoskin's business and a testament to his reputation as a purveyor of fine linens. The elegant design reflects the refined taste prevalent in Great Britain at the time. The image transports us back to a bustling street in England where customers would have flocked to Hoskin's shop seeking quality fabrics and fashionable accessories.
