EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from Sheffield City Archives, showcasing an advertisement for John Atkinson, The Draper, located on The Moor in Sheffield. Dating back to 1907, this vintage piece offers a fascinating glimpse into the bustling retail scene of early 20th century Yorkshire. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, where hand-painted signs adorned shopfronts and horse-drawn carriages lined the streets. Prominently displayed is John Atkinson's department store sign, proudly announcing its presence as a trusted destination for quality fabrics and fashionable attire. This photograph not only serves as a visual testament to the rich history of Sheffield but also pays homage to local businesses that shaped the city's commercial landscape. It invites us to imagine stepping through those doors over a century ago – exploring aisles filled with elegant garments and experiencing exceptional customer service. Preserved with care by Sheffield City Libraries, this archival gem allows us to appreciate how advertising has evolved throughout time while reminding us of our shared heritage. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryear, let it transport us back in time and spark curiosity about life in early 1900s Yorkshire.
