EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant and bustling world of Mandeville Market Day in Jamaica, West Indies during the 1910s. This photograph transports us back in time to an era of colorful markets and lively community gatherings. The marketplace in Mandeville, the second largest town in Jamaica, was a hub of activity where locals and visitors alike came to buy and sell fresh produce, handmade goods, and exotic wares. The scene is filled with a rich tapestry of sights, sounds, and smells. In the foreground, a mother cradles her baby in her arms as she haggles with a vendor over the price of ripe, juicy mangoes. A young boy, dressed in shorts and a shirt, looks on with wide eyes, taking in the sights and sounds of the bustling market. In the background, the distinctive green and red colors of a Selyn and Son produce stand catch the eye. The storefront, adorned with a large sign and awning, offers a tantalizing selection of fruits and vegetables. The marketplace was also a social gathering place, where friends and neighbors exchanged news and gossip. The sound of lively conversations and laughter fills the air, adding to the lively atmosphere. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich cultural heritage and vibrant community spirit that has long defined the Caribbean and Jamaica in particular. It invites us to take a step back in time and experience the sights, sounds, and flavors of Mandeville Market Day in the 1910s.
