EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the essence of a bygone era on Oxford Street, with the iconic Sandwich Board Man making his way through the bustling streets. The man is adorned in a sandwich board advertising Cavendish Maison, a local hairdresser, showcasing historical techniques and styles. His presence adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, as he weaves through crowds with his waving board.
The Sandwich Board Man was once a common sight in busy city centers, serving as walking advertisements for businesses before the age of digital marketing. This permanent fixture on Oxford Street represents a simpler time when advertising was more personal and hands-on.
The details in this photograph are truly captivating - from the intricate design of the sandwich board to the meticulous shingling technique used by the hairdresser. It's clear that every aspect of this image has been carefully curated to preserve a piece of history.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from Mary Evans Picture Library, we can't help but feel transported back in time to an era where local businesses thrived and community connections were paramount. The Sandwich Board Man may be long gone from our modern streets, but his legacy lives on through images like these that capture moments of everyday life in all its historical glory.
