EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card from the 19th century showcases Martin and Alder, a renowned supplier of beer and other beverages located at 8 Little Hermitage Street in Wapping, London. The intricate engraving captures the essence of their business, with ships sailing in the background symbolizing their involvement in export trade. The warm brown tones of the print add a touch of nostalgia to this advertisement. It serves as a reminder of an era when handcrafted engravings were used to promote businesses like Martin and Alder's. This particular trade card highlights their wide range of offerings, including cider, ale, stout, and even Bavarian beer. As you gaze upon this image, it transports you back to a time when people enjoyed these libations with great pleasure. The attention to detail in depicting every aspect of the beverage industry is remarkable – from barrels stacked high on wagons to men eagerly drinking together. Although we do not have information about the company itself or its commercial use today, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind old advertisements and the historical significance they hold. It provides us with a glimpse into London's bustling alcohol scene during that period. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' collection and preservation efforts, we can still admire such fascinating pieces from our past.
