EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Vintage Photographic Moment: Illingworths Slogas Gaslight Paper Label, Circa 1920s" In this photograph, we take a glimpse into the rich history of photography through an intriguing artifact - an envelope adorned with the label of Illingworths Slogas Gaslight Paper, produced by T. Illingworth & Co. Ltd. in Willesden Junction, NW London, during the 1920s. The label, featuring the distinctive Illingworths' horseshoe and TIC (Trade Mark) logo, is a testament to the company's commitment to quality and innovation in the realm of photographic film production. The label, printed on manila brown envelope, bears the information that this set of eight sheets retailed for a mere sixpence. The Illingworths' label, with its glossy, pink, red, and black design, exudes an air of sophistication and professionalism. The lamp and lamps depicted on the label symbolize the gaslight developing process, which was a popular method for photographic development during the early 20th century. This photographic paper, known as Slogas Gaslight Paper, was a crucial component in the photographic process. It played a significant role in capturing and preserving precious memories, as it was used to develop photographs taken with cameras during this era. The fact that this label has survived the test of time is a reminder of the enduring allure and importance of photography in our lives. This photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the historical significance of Illingworths and their contributions to the world of photography.
