EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lithograph print captures a page from Gamage's General Catalogue, showcasing the diverse range of products available at the iconic department store in Holborn, London. Dating back to around 1927, this image provides a glimpse into the shopping experience of early 20th-century England.
Gamages was known for its wide selection of goods and services, catering to the needs and desires of Londoners for nearly a century. From household items to fashion accessories, this catalogue offered something for everyone during the bustling interwar period.
The whimsical illustration featured on the page depicts a harlequin figure, symbolizing the playful and theatrical nature of Italian comedy. This nod to commedia dell'arte adds an artistic flair to the otherwise practical contents of the catalogue.
As we admire this snapshot from history, we are transported back to a time when department stores were more than just places to shop—they were cultural hubs where people could explore new trends and technologies. The crown emblem proudly displayed on the page serves as a reminder of Gamages' royal warrant and reputation for quality service.
Let us cherish this piece of nostalgia as we appreciate both the craftsmanship of English School artists and the enduring legacy of Gamages in British retail history.
