EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Pitmans Metropolitan School, one of its typewriting rooms. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The room depicted here was used for teaching shorthand, typewriting, book-keeping, languages, general business training, and preparation for civil service and other examinations. The photograph was originally intended to be an illustration for the school's prospectus in April 1900. Located on Southampton Row in London WC, Pitmans Metropolitan School aimed to equip students with valuable skills and qualifications necessary for success in various fields. In this image from Look and Learn's archives (which are now out of copyright), we see rows of vintage typewriters neatly arranged on desks. The atmosphere exudes a sense of focused learning as aspiring professionals diligently practice their typing skills under the watchful eye of their instructors. This historical snapshot not only showcases the importance placed on education at that time but also highlights how far technology has advanced since then. It serves as a reminder that businesses have always relied on skilled individuals proficient in these essential office tasks. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection - a testament to both the rich history of Pitmans Metropolitan School and the enduring value placed on practical education within our society.
