B Salmon's prominence is evident through his name prominently displayed on the card. As a trusted supplier of grain and meal, he catered to the needs of both crew members and ships alike. His store in Wivenhoe became synonymous with quality provisions for seafarers venturing across European waters. This trade card not only serves as an advertisement but also offers valuable insights into social history. It sheds light on how ship chandlers played a vital role in supporting maritime communities by providing necessary supplies during lengthy journeys at sea.
