EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1912, showcases the bustling activity outside Woodward & Lothrop's Department Store in Washington, D.C. The image, from the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past of America's retail industry. In the foreground, a horse-drawn wagon is parked alongside the sidewalk, while a delivery van and a truck are positioned at the curb. The trucks, bearing the Woodward & Lothrop logo, are loaded with various merchandise, ready for delivery to customers. The store's impressive façade, adorned with large glass windows and elegant architectural details, stands proudly in the background. A streetcar line runs along the street, adding to the hustle and bustle of the scene. The image is a testament to the industrious spirit of the early 20th century, as well as the growing importance of road transport in the retail sector. The photograph, taken by an unknown artist, offers a unique perspective into the history of Woodward & Lothrop and the development of retail and transportation in Washington, D.C. and the United States as a whole.
