EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph showcases a selection of stationery items from George Simpson & Sons, a renowned ham and bacon curing business based in Gillamoor, Yorkshire, during the 1910s. The image features an assortment of paper goods adorned with the company's distinctive logo and contact details. At the heart of the composition lies a letterhead, displaying the company name, "George Simpson & Sons, Ham and Bacon Curers, Kirbymoorside, Yorkshire." The elegant script, likely penned by Mrs. Harding, the company's secretary or bookkeeper, adds a personal touch to the professional communication. Surrounding the letterhead are various invoices, bills, and receipts, all bearing the same intricate design and meticulous handwriting. These documents would have been essential for the day-to-day operations of the business, recording transactions and keeping accounts up-to-date. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past of this once thriving ham and bacon curing enterprise. The combination of the rustic charm of Gillamoor, Yorkshire, and the meticulously crafted stationery items evoke a sense of nostalgia and remind us of the importance of communication and record-keeping in the early 20th century.
