EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from c1910 showcases the picturesque town of Reading in Berkshire, England. Known for its thriving industries in ribbons and biscuits, Reading was a bustling city with a population of 92,270 during that time. The image captures the essence of this vibrant place, highlighting its impressive engineering works and notable buildings. Taken from a card game featuring views of chief towns in each county across England, this beautifully printed photograph is a testament to the rich geographical diversity found throughout the country. The colors are vividly brought to life, adding an extra layer of charm to the scene. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the majestic River Thames flowing through Reading. This iconic river not only adds natural beauty to the landscape but also serves as an important transportation route for trade and commerce. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate how it encapsulates both urban development and serene countryside surroundings. It offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century England - an era characterized by progress and innovation. This remarkable print has been preserved by The Print Collector under their collection "The Counties of England - A Geographical Game" published by John Jaques & Son Ltd. , London. Its historical significance lies not only in documenting Reading's past but also in reminding us of our ever-evolving landscapes shaped by industry and culture throughout centuries gone by.
