EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene outside D. Bradbury Jones & Co's Leader Cycle & Motor Works in Carmarthen, Wales, circa 1901. The Edwardian era shop premises, located on a lively street, are filled with the sights and sounds of a thriving bicycle business. Bradbury Jones, the proprietor, stands proudly in front of the shop, donning a smart suit and bowler hat, as he oversees the comings and goings of his customers. The Leader Cycle & Motor Works was a significant establishment in Carmarthen during this period, offering a range of bicycles and motor vehicles for sale and repair. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the transport trade during the early 1900s. Customers can be seen examining bicycles displayed outside the shop, while others load their purchases onto horse-drawn carts or bicycles. A motor vehicle is parked in front of the shop, symbolizing the emergence of motorized transportation. The intricate details of the photograph, from the shop signage to the clothing of the people, offer a rich insight into the social and commercial fabric of the time. The Leader Cycle & Motor Works played an essential role in the lives of the people of Carmarthen, providing them with the means to travel and connect with their community. This photograph is a testament to the importance of cycling and the bicycle trade during the Edwardian era and the transformation of transportation during this period.
