EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from the Army and Navy Stores Catalogue, dating back to 1939-40. The lithograph, created by an English School artist of the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the shopping experience at this renowned London establishment during that era. With its detailed illustrations and descriptions, the catalogue presents an array of goods available for sale through mail order. The image captures various items related to swimming and water sports, highlighting their popularity during this time period. From inflatable rafts and lounge chairs to swimwear accessories like li los and swimming belts, these products were designed to enhance one's enjoyment in the water. Other notable items include roller skates, beach balls, lifebuoys, and even a game of bull cushioned with German precision. The historical significance of this catalogue lies not only in its representation of early 20th-century British retail but also in its unintentional juxtaposition with Germany. As tensions mounted across Europe during this period leading up to World War II, it is intriguing to see German-made products featured alongside those from Great Britain. Overall, this print provides us with a fascinating glimpse into both consumer culture and international relations during a pivotal moment in history. It serves as a reminder of how everyday objects can offer valuable insights into our past while also showcasing artistic talent through lithography techniques employed by English School artists.
