EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the late 1930s or early 1940s, capturing a smalltown street scene in the Sevenoaks area of Kent. The focal point of the image is a man on horseback, standing proudly in front of a charming grocer's shop. The shopfront is adorned with various advertisements and signs, giving us a glimpse into the products and services available at that time. Prominently displayed are signs for T. H. Knight, a draper and grocer, as well as Messers Cronk Chartered Surveyors located at 138 High Street. Other notable ads include Brooke Bond Tea, Colmans Blue (presumably laundry detergent), Leons Coffee and Chicory Extract, Leons Tea, Robin Starch for dainty linen, Spratts Dog Cakes - catering to our furry friends' needs. Adding to the nostalgic atmosphere are additional posters showcasing entertainment options such as Simone Simon starring film "Love and Hisses" playing at Plaza Super Cinema. We also catch sight of an Otford Automobile Association sign nearby. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of rural life during this era – simple yet bustling with activity. It transports us back to a time when horses were still used for transportation and local shops played an integral role in community life. A true gem from twentieth-century Europeana photography preserved by TopFoto. co. uk
