EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from the 96th edition of Gamage's General Catalogue, dating back to around 1927, offers a glimpse into the bustling world of department stores in early 20th century London. Gamages, located in Holborn, was a beloved retail destination that operated for nearly a century before closing its doors in 1972.
The intricate details and charming illustrations found within this page from the catalogue provide a window into the past, showcasing the diverse array of products available to shoppers during this era. From fashion and homeware to toys and gadgets, Gamages catered to every need and desire of its discerning clientele.
As we study this litho print by an unknown English School artist, we are transported back in time to an age when department stores were not just places to shop but also social hubs where people gathered to see and be seen. The nostalgia evoked by this image is palpable, reminding us of a bygone era when browsing through catalogues was a popular pastime for many.
Whether you have fond memories of visiting Gamages yourself or simply appreciate historical artifacts like this one, this print serves as a poignant reminder of London's rich retail history and the enduring allure of vintage ephemera.
