EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the bustling streets of Glasgow in the 1950s. In this snapshot, we see J D McFarland, a mobile butcher, going about his daily trade in the suburbs of the Scottish city on April 27th, 1955. The image showcases McFarland's mobile shop - a van filled with baskets of fresh meat and cuts ready for sale. The hardworking man stands proudly beside his vehicle as he serves customers who gather around him. A group of women can be seen engaging in conversation while inspecting the quality of the meat on display. This photograph provides a glimpse into an era when mobile shops were common sights in neighborhoods across Scotland. It captures not only McFarland's dedication to his work but also highlights how important personal connections were between local traders and their customers. As we admire this piece of unseen Scotland history, it reminds us of the vibrant community spirit that thrived during those times. The photo encapsulates both nostalgia for a bygone era and admiration for individuals like J D McFarland who played vital roles within their communities through their dedicated service.
