EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing early 20th century photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, the bustling energy of Oxford Street in London is brought to a momentary halt as the eye is drawn to an advertisement for Sandemans Port, superimposed upon the scene. The iconic image of the Sandeman Don, with his cape and top hat, gazes out from the poster, beckoning passersby to sample the fine wines of Sandemans. The advertisement, which appears to have been placed on the side of a bus or other large vehicle, adds an exciting layer of depth and historical context to the image. The red and gold colors of the Sandemans logo stand out boldly against the gray tones of the London street, drawing the attention of the pedestrians, who pause in their tracks to take a closer look. The scene is filled with the sights and sounds of urban life in London during this era. Horse-drawn carriages share the road with motorized buses, and the crowds of people, dressed in fashionable Edwardian attire, move about with purpose and energy. The towering buildings of Oxford Street, including the impressive facade of Selfridges department store, loom overhead, casting long shadows across the bustling thoroughfare. The image of Oxford Street, with its blend of modern transportation and traditional horse-drawn carriages, serves as a fascinating backdrop for the Sandemans Port advertisement. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to experience the sights, sounds, and advertisements of London during the early 20th century. Whether you are a history buff, a fan of advertising, or simply someone who enjoys the beauty of vintage photography, this image is sure to captivate and delight. The Sandemans Port advertisement, with its iconic image of the Sandeman Don, adds an intriguing layer of history and intrigue to the scene, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the past.
