EDITORS COMMENTS
Step aboard the R.M.S.P. liner, 'Bond Street,' and experience the thrill of shopping on the high seas in the roaring twenties. This photograph print, drawn by the skilled hand of Bryan de Grineau, transports us back in time to an era when the allure of retail therapy knew no bounds, not even the vast expanse of the ocean. The image showcases the bustling scene of passengers browsing and buying at the liner's magasin, a term used for the ship's onboard store. The elegantly dressed women, their hats perched atop their heads, scrutinize the merchandise with great interest, their purchases carefully weighed in their hands. The men, equally engrossed, converse with the shopkeepers, their voices carrying over the gentle hum of the ship's engines. But the shopping experience on board the 'Bond Street' was not limited to the magasin alone. Pedlars, who boarded the ship at Madeira and Bahia, offered their wares to passengers seeking a unique souvenir or a quick bargain. These vendors, with their colorful displays and enticing offers, added to the vibrant atmosphere of shopping on the ship. The ocean liner, with its grandeur and sophistication, epitomized the glamour and luxury of travel during the 1920s. And shopping, it seemed, was the chief diversion for passengers, even as they sailed the vast, blue sea. This enchanting scene, drawn by Bryan de Grineau in 1921, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the allure of shopping knew no bounds, not even the high seas.
