EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this collection of Old Pub Signs (Plate 1) from Mary Evans Picture Library. This intriguing image transports us to a bygone era, where traditional signs adorn the facades of quaint English pubs. The signs depicted in Plate 1 represent a baker, a dairy, a shoemaker, a wine merchant, and the Two Jolly Brewers. Each sign is a testament to the rich history and heritage of the local communities they once served. The baker's sign, featuring a loaf of bread and a rolling pin, pays homage to the essential role bakeries played in providing fresh bread and pastries to local residents. The dairy sign, with its milk churn and cow, reminds us of the importance of dairy farming and production in rural areas. The shoemaker's sign, complete with a shoe and last, represents the craftsmanship and skill of local cobblers who made and repaired shoes for generations. The wine merchant's sign, adorned with grapes and a barrel, speaks to the thriving wine trade and the enjoyment of a good glass of wine. Lastly, the Two Jolly Brewers sign, featuring two merry-looking brewers, represents the long-standing tradition of brewing and serving ale and beer in English pubs. These signs not only served as advertisements but also as symbols of the trades and crafts that once thrived in communities across England. This collection of Old Pub Signs (Plate 1) offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to appreciate the history and traditions that continue to shape our culture today. Each sign tells a story, and together they paint a vivid picture of a time when life was simpler, and community was at the heart of everyday life.
