EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Advert, Brown & Co, an iron packaging firm based in the heart of Glasgow, Scotland, during the Edwardian era. The year is 1905, and the industrial landscape of Wigton Street is bustling with activity. The ironworks of Advert, Brown & Co are prominently displayed, showcasing their impressive range of products. Iron cisterns, with their distinctive curved designs and intricate Art Nouveau borders, dominate the scene. These water storage containers were essential for both domestic and industrial use, providing a reliable source of water for households and factories alike. The casks and pails, also made of iron, are neatly arranged, their brown hue adding a warm, earthy tone to the otherwise monochrome image. The design of the advertisement itself is a testament to the artistic sensibilities of the era. The border, adorned with delicate floral motifs, frames the image perfectly, drawing the viewer's attention to the products on display. The bold, clear lettering of the company name and tagline, "Iron Packaging, Cisterns, Casks, Pails etc.", exudes confidence and professionalism. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the industrial trade of Glasgow during the early 1900s. The combination of the rustic charm of the iron products and the elegant Art Nouveau design makes for a captivating and timeless image.
