EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Advert, Allen & Wright, Briar and Meerschaum Pipes," dates back to January 1902, transporting us to the Edwardian era of London's Piccadilly, specifically at Poultry. The photograph, taken by the renowned photographer Terry Parker, showcases an elegant display of briar and meerschaum pipes, artfully arranged in a wooden case. The intricate designs and rich colors of the pipes are a testament to the fine craftsmanship and quality that Advert, Allen & Wright were known for during this period. The connoisseur in the photograph, with a serious expression and a pipe clenched between his teeth, adds to the allure of the scene. The pipes, with their distinctive shapes and textures, evoke a sense of tradition and sophistication, making them desirable collectibles even today. The case, adorned with intricate carvings and a polished finish, complements the pipes perfectly, adding to the overall appeal of the display. The 1900s were a time when smoking was a popular pastime, and the advertising of high-quality tobacco products and smoking accessories was a common sight in London's bustling streets. This photograph captures the essence of that era, offering a glimpse into the world of pipe smoking and the artistry behind the creation of these beautiful objects. The image is not only a visual delight but also a historical document, providing us with a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring appeal of these iconic pipes.
