EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print capturing an advertisement from 1837. The image showcases the vibrant city center of Sheffield, bustling with the energy of its thriving cutlery industry. Prominently displayed is the advertisement for Unwin and Rodgers, esteemed knife manufacturers located at 9 Burgess Street. Intriguingly, this historical gem reveals a wide array of products offered by Unwin and Rodgers beyond their renowned knives. Lancets boasting exquisite handles made from pearl, tortoise shell, and horn catch the eye, while nail files, toothpicks, tongue scrapers, and more complete their diverse range. The photograph transports us to an era when craftsmanship was paramount and attention to detail was celebrated. It serves as a testament to Sheffield's rich heritage as a hub for cutlery production during the Industrial Revolution. Preserved within the pages of William White's History and General Directory of Sheffield. . . , this snapshot offers a glimpse into daily life in 19th-century England. With its meticulous composition and intricate typography adorning shopfronts along Burgess Street, it encapsulates both commerce and artistry. As we admire this remarkable piece from Sheffield Local Studies Library archives today, let us appreciate not only the skillful workmanship but also reflect on how far our society has come since these humble beginnings.
