EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the vibrant Co-op drapery department, Barnsley, South Yorkshire, 1956. This print by artist Michael Walters captures a moment of bustling activity within this iconic British institution. The Co-operative movement was at its peak during the mid-20th century, and this image beautifully showcases the spirit of community and shared values that defined it. Intriguingly composed, the photograph invites us into a world where fabric reigns supreme. Rows upon rows of textiles are neatly displayed, offering customers an extensive range starting from just 3 shillings and 6 pence per yard. From delicate silks to sturdy linens, there is something for every taste and budget. The scene exudes an atmosphere of industry as shop assistants attend to their duties with utmost professionalism. Shoppers can be seen browsing through bolts of material or engaging in lively conversations about patterns and designs. It's a snapshot frozen in time—a testament to an era when personal service mattered most. This evocative image not only celebrates the artistry behind drapery but also serves as a reminder of Britain's rich retail heritage. As we admire Michael Walters' monochrome masterpiece today, we are transported back to a simpler time when shopping was an experience filled with human connection and discovery.
