EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1960, capturing a nostalgic scene at Carlines Self Service Store in Mexborough, South Yorkshire. The talented artist Michael Walters skillfully portrays this snapshot of British retail history, showcasing a wide array of products that were once found on the store's shelves. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era where some items have vanished from our modern-day supermarkets while others have managed to retain their packaging and branding for nearly five decades. It is fascinating to witness how certain goods have stood the test of time. In the foreground, a mechanical National till catches our attention with its vintage charm. This relic from the past serves as a reminder of simpler times when technology was not as advanced as it is today. The photograph invites us into the heart of Carlines Self Service Store, providing a glimpse into the bustling interior filled with industry and activity. The shelves are neatly stocked with various products, inviting customers to explore and select their desired items. This remarkable piece by Michael Walters captures not only a specific location but also reflects broader themes such as consumerism and changing retail practices throughout Britain during the 20th century. It stands as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of an important era in English society.
