EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of the CIS Building on Corporation Street in Manchester, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This image offers a glimpse into Manchester's rich history, showcasing the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era. The CIS Building, with its imposing presence and intricate architectural details, stands proudly amidst the hustle and bustle of Corporation Street. The building's name, which once stood for the Cooperative Wholesale Society, reflects its historical significance as a cooperative venture that brought together various businesses under one umbrella. The photograph, taken likely during the Victorian or Edwardian period, reveals the building's impressive facade adorned with ornate decorations and intricate stonework. The use of lantern slides, a popular method for projecting images during this time, adds to the nostalgic charm of the image. The CIS Building's design is a testament to Manchester's architectural heritage, which blends Victorian and Edwardian influences. The building's tall, arched windows, intricate cornices, and grand entranceway are all reminiscent of the opulence and grandeur of the period. This photograph is not only a beautiful piece of art but also an important historical document that transports us back to a time when Manchester was at the forefront of the industrial revolution and the cooperative movement. The CIS Building on Corporation Street remains a symbol of Manchester's rich history and its commitment to community and cooperation.
