EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Advert, D Brown & Co, Phoenix Copper Works in Govan, Scotland, taken in 1905. The image showcases the grandeur and industrial might of the Edwardian era, with the copper works prominently displayed against the backdrop of the River Clyde. The Phoenix Copper Works, a subsidiary of D Brown & Co, was a significant contributor to Scotland's thriving trade and industry during the early 1900s. The company's reputation for producing high-quality copper tubes and sheets was renowned both locally and internationally. The photograph captures the intricate details of the copper works, with its towering smokestacks, sprawling buildings, and intricate machinery. The workers, clad in protective gear, can be seen toiling away, a testament to the hard work and dedication that went into the production process. The name "Phoenix" is a fitting one, as the works rose from the ashes of previous failures, much like the mythical bird that is reborn from its own flames. The company's resilience and determination to succeed in the face of adversity are evident in the photograph, making it a true souvenir of Scotland's industrial past. This photograph is a reminder of the ingenuity and innovation that defined the Scottish industrial landscape during the Edwardian era. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when the clang of hammers and the hiss of steam were the soundtrack to the nation's progress. The Advert, D Brown & Co, Phoenix Copper Works in Govan, Scotland, stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the people who built it and the industry that shaped a nation.
