EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Pledge & Son Ltd, the renowned milling company. In this image, taken by John Topham in 1939, we witness a loaded Bedford truck proudly belonging to the company as it pulls out from their iconic Victoria Mills located in Ashford, Kent. The photograph showcases the essence of an era caught between two world wars - the twentieth century's tumultuous interwar period. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot of life in the 1930s. As we gaze at this scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an age when such vehicles were considered cutting-edge technology. The sheer size and weight of sacks stacked high on the lorry emphasize both the productivity and importance of Pledge & Son Ltd within their industry. This image serves as a testament to their commitment to delivering quality products while showcasing their impressive fleet. Moreover, Topham's composition skillfully highlights not only the vehicle but also draws attention to the grandeur of Victoria Mills itself. Its Victorian architecture stands tall against a backdrop that symbolizes progress and innovation. As viewers immerse themselves in this remarkable piece of European photography history from Europeana Photography collection, they cannot help but appreciate how it encapsulates an era defined by industrial growth and architectural marvels like Victoria Mills.
