EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1922 with this print from Sheffield City Archives. The image showcases the aftermath of a devastating fire that engulfed Carter and Sons, wholesale druggist and manufacturing chemists, located on Attercliffe Road in Sheffield. In an effort to continue serving their loyal customers, a temporary store was set up at Savile Street, as depicted in this advertisement. The attention to detail is remarkable, with the poster proudly displaying the name of the renowned Pom Pom Fly Catcher. This famous product was undoubtedly a staple for many households during that era, known for its effectiveness in keeping pesky flies at bay. It's fascinating how even amidst adversity, businesses like Carter and Sons found innovative ways to adapt and cater to their clientele. Preserved within Sheffield Local Studies Library's collection (y10023), this original photograph offers a glimpse into the past advertising techniques employed by local establishments. The posters adorning the walls serve as reminders of an era when print media played a crucial role in promoting products and services. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also recognize the resilience demonstrated by businesses like Carter and Sons during challenging times. Their determination to rise from ashes symbolizes the spirit of Yorkshire's industrious community.
