EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph by H.L. Oakley, titled "Advertisement for Selfridges Tobacco Products," we are transported back in time to the early 20th century and the bustling interior of a London department store. The scene is set in the elegant Selfridges store, located at W1 in Oxford Street, where men in formal attire gather around a table, engrossed in animated conversation. At the heart of the gathering is an ornate armchair, upon which sits a man in a top hat, his silhouette framed against the smoky atmosphere. He holds a pipe, his eyes closed in contentment as he takes a puff, lost in thought. A dog lies at his feet, its ears perked up, as if also enjoying the camaraderie of the group. Surrounding the men are various Selfridges tobacco products, displayed on the table for all to see. The store's trademark brown paper bags are visible in the background, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The atmosphere is one of conviviality and relaxation, a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the busy Oxford Street outside. The silhouettes of two men, one standing and one seated, can be seen in the background, adding depth and dimension to the photograph. The overall effect is one of warmth and familiarity, a snapshot of a bygone era when tobacco use was a common social activity. This photograph, with its intriguing composition and rich detail, invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of the past. It is a testament to the power of advertising to transport us to another time and place, and to evoke emotions and memories that linger long after the image has faded from view.
