EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time during the Danish Bacon Company exhibition day in Wilsic, near Doncaster, South Yorkshire in 1961. The Danish Bacon Company organized this gathering of grocers from the Doncaster area at the picturesque Wilsic Cricket Club to showcase their innovative methods of selling pork products. In this particular scene, a member of the sales team is demonstrating how their products would be displayed in a self-service freezer, accompanied by some mouthwatering oven-ready Norfolk chicken. During the late 1950s, self-service supermarkets had gained immense popularity and were becoming increasingly common in South Yorkshire. This event served as an opportunity for Danish Bacon to highlight their presence and expertise within this evolving industry. It is fascinating to witness how advancements in technology and consumer behavior influenced traditional shopping experiences. The photograph not only provides insight into the business practices of that era but also offers a glimpse into everyday life during 1960s Britain. The attentive audience consisting of grocers and shopkeepers attentively watches as the sales representative showcases his skills. Taken by Michael Walters from Paul Walters Worldwide Photography Ltd. , this monochrome image beautifully encapsulates an important chapter in British history where commerce met innovation against a backdrop of rural charm.
