EDITORS COMMENTS
Fleet Street - looking west from Ludgate Circus, London (circa 1915): A captivating glimpse into the bustling heart of London's historic Fleet Street during the 1910s. In this photograph, we see a vibrant and lively scene, with the majority of the buildings and offices along Fleet Street dedicated to editorial, printing, and publishing works. The street is filled with a sense of energy and industry, as buses and omnibuses make their way through the throngs of people and vehicles. The omnipresent cabs and taxis add to the sense of movement and urgency, as they weave in and out of the scene. The awnings of the printing works and publishers extend outwards, providing shelter from the elements and a welcoming invitation to those in search of the latest news. Newspapers were the primary output of these establishments, and the constant hum of activity suggests that the deadlines were always looming. Fleet Street was the epicenter of London's media scene during this era, and this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of editorial and publishing during the early 20th century. The hustle and bustle of the street, the industrious atmosphere, and the sense of urgency all contribute to a scene that is both captivating and evocative.
