1973 Amalgamated Area Broadwick Business Dental Dentistry Office Registered Signs Soho Stallard
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph taken by Robert Stallard in 1973, we are transported back in time to the bustling district of Soho in London, specifically to the stretch of Broadwick Street between numbers 26 and 40, where the Amalgamated Dental Company Limited had its registered office. The image captures the unique character and vibrancy of Soho during the 1970s, a time when the area was known for its eclectic mix of businesses and creative energy. The photograph shows a narrow, cobblestone street filled with people and activity. On the left side of the frame, a man in a suit and hat walks briskly, while on the right, a group of people huddle around a street vendor, perhaps enjoying a snack or a cup of tea. The pavement is lined with a variety of shops, including a record store, a greengrocer, and a newsagent. But the most striking feature of the photograph is the large, ornate sign for the Amalgamated Dental Company Limited, which hangs above the door at number 26-40. The sign, with its elegant script and ornate border, stands out against the gritty backdrop of the street, a testament to the professionalism and respectability of the dental business. This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era in Soho's history, a time when the area was a hub of commerce and creativity, and when businesses like the Amalgamated Dental Company Limited played an important role in the community. Today, Soho continues to be a vibrant and dynamic district, but it is a far cry from the scene captured in Robert Stallard's photograph. This image is a valuable historical record, and a reminder of the rich history and character of Soho and the city of London.
