EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London in the 1920s. The image features a knife and scissors grinder, skillfully captured by artist McLeish. Dressed in traditional attire with a hat adorning his head, the man operates a fascinating contraption that includes a grinding wheel. The scene is filled with activity as people go about their daily lives in this vibrant city. The location appears to be a busy lane or avenue, where passersby stop to observe the skilled craftsman at work. This occupation was an essential service during that time, ensuring sharp knives and scissors for households and businesses alike. The monochrome effect adds depth and character to the photograph, highlighting every detail of the machinery used by this dedicated professional. Published in "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock, this image captures not only an era but also showcases the talent of both McLeish and Adcock. As we gaze upon this print from Heritage Images, we are transported back in time to witness a slice of life from early 20th century Britain. It serves as a reminder of how professions have evolved over time while showcasing the craftsmanship and dedication that existed within each trade during those years gone by.
