EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting image of a Mobile Fish and Chip Van from the 1940s, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The exterior of the van exudes a charming vintage allure, with its rustic wooden body adorned with quaint floral designs and the unmistakable aroma of fresh fish and crispy chips wafting through the air. But the true magic lies within the van's cozy interior, revealed in the accompanying photograph. The space is compact yet efficient, with a small counter and fryer at the back, a wooden table and bench seating for customers, and a lantern hanging from the ceiling, casting a warm, inviting glow over the scene. This Mobile Fish and Chip Van is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the past. In a time when traditional brick-and-mortar shops were the norm, these mobile vendors offered a convenient and delicious alternative to those on the go. The use of a lantern suggests that this particular van may have been operating in the early hours of the morning or late into the evening, catering to the needs of those working long hours or enjoying a night out. The Edwardian or Victorian era influences are evident in the van's design, from the intricate floral patterns to the use of natural materials like wood and iron. This Mobile Fish and Chip Van is not only a tasty treat for the taste buds but also a visual feast for the eyes, transporting us to a simpler time in history.
