EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from the Register of trade marks of the Cutlers Company of Sheffield, dating back to 1919. The meticulous compilation work was carried out by J. H. Whitham and D. Vickers, with the original document now preserved at Sheffield Archives (ref. SY599/B7/1). The image transports us back in time to an era deeply impacted by World War I, where advertisements played a crucial role in shaping public sentiment and supporting war efforts. Samuel Warren Ltd. , renowned manufacturers hailing from the heart of Sheffield's steel industry, took center stage on this particular page. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are met with striking visuals that symbolize strength and resilience amidst adversity. Prominently featured are tanks - formidable war machines that revolutionized modern warfare during this period. These tanks serve as powerful reminders of the technological advancements made possible by companies like Samuel Warren Ltd. , who were instrumental in supplying steel for their construction. The Speedwell Steelworks, located within St Mary's district, emerges as a significant player in this narrative – its name etched alongside Samuel Warren Ltd. 's trademarked products. This collaboration between two stalwarts underscores Sheffield's pivotal role as an industrial powerhouse during wartime. While it is important to note that commercial use should not be inferred from this photograph or its caption, it serves as a poignant reminder of how industries mobilized themselves during times of conflict – harnessing their expertise and resources to contribute towards national defense and victory
