EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing piece of history - an advertisement for Mary Jackson, Carrier, dating back to the year 1837. The image is sourced from the renowned "History and General Directory of Sheffield" by William White, a significant publication that provides valuable insights into the city's past. Preserved within the archives of Sheffield Local Studies Library (ref. 914.274 SST), this photograph offers us a glimpse into early advertising practices in bustling urban centers. The advertisement itself highlights Mary Jackson as a prominent figure in road transport during that era. As carriers played a vital role in connecting communities and facilitating trade, Mary's services would have been crucial for businesses and individuals alike. Although we do not know much about her company or its operations from this particular caption, it is fascinating to imagine how she navigated through the busy streets of Sheffield with horse-drawn carriages loaded with goods. This print serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time while also shedding light on forgotten aspects of daily life in historical cities like Sheffield. It invites us to reflect upon transportation methods and their significance in shaping urban landscapes centuries ago. Through such glimpses into our collective past, we gain a deeper appreciation for those who paved the way before us and contributed to building vibrant communities like Sheffield.
