EDITORS COMMENTS
This print advertisement showcases The North British Rubber Company Ltd, based in Edinburgh, Scotland, in the early 1900s. The image, dated 1905, depicts a female figure gracefully holding a tyre, surrounded by an array of rubber goods and products. The industrial backdrop of Castle Mills, where the company was located, can be seen in the background. The North British Rubber Company was a significant player in Scotland's industrial scene during the Edwardian era. Established in 1878, the company specialized in the production of rubber goods, including tyres, which were in high demand due to the growing popularity of automobiles. The company's success allowed it to expand its operations and become a major exporter, with India being a significant market. This advertisement serves as a fascinating snapshot of the past, showcasing the company's commitment to innovation and quality. The use of a female figure in the advertisement was a common marketing tactic during this time, as women were often associated with nurturing and care, making them an ideal representation of the company's products. The intricate details of the advertisement, from the textures of the rubber goods to the delicate folds of the figure's dress, add to its overall charm and appeal. This print is an excellent souvenir for anyone interested in Scottish trade and industry during the early 1900s. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing insight into the companies that shaped Scotland's industrial landscape and the marketing tactics used during this era.
