EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, hailing from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into Manchester's rich industrial past. The image depicts the CWS Tea Warehouse, a significant landmark of the city during the 1920s or 1930s. The Cooperative Wholesale Society (CWS), a leading consumer cooperative in the United Kingdom, operated this grand warehouse as part of its extensive tea distribution network. The photograph captures the essence of the era, with its Victorian and Edwardian architectural influences, as evidenced by the building's red-brick facade, intricate detailing, and large arched windows. The warehouse's imposing presence is further emphasized by the nearby canal and the towering ship in the background, suggesting the importance of water transportation in Manchester's tea trade. The lantern slide movement, a popular photographic technique during this period, adds an extra layer of intrigue to the image. The soft focus and warm tones evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back in time. The image also reveals a bustling scene of activity, with workers moving crates and tea chests, reflecting the cooperative's commitment to efficient and large-scale distribution. This photograph is an invaluable historical record, offering insights into Manchester's industrial heritage and the role of the Cooperative Wholesale Society in the city's tea trade during the early 20th century.
