EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling Tesco Supermarket at Elephant and Castle, London, on a crisp Monday morning of February 24th, 1969. This print by Arthur Jones captures the essence of grocery shopping in the swinging sixties. In this snapshot from the past, we are transported into a scene brimming with activity. A customer stands at the cashier's till, her purse in hand as she pays for her purchases. The shelves behind her are stocked with an array of food and drink items that were popular during that era. Amongst the groceries on display is a prominent box of Kerrygold Irish butter, showcasing international flavors even then. Puffed wheat cereal boxes line another shelf nearby, offering a glimpse into breakfast choices of yesteryear. The supermarket exudes an inviting atmosphere as shoppers navigate their way through aisles filled with baskets overflowing with goodies. It's fascinating to witness how shopping habits have evolved over time while recognizing familiar elements that still exist today. Arthur Jones' lens perfectly captures this nostalgic moment frozen in time—a testament to his keen eye for detail and ability to encapsulate everyday scenes so beautifully. This print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a delightful reminder of simpler times when grocery shopping was an experience worth cherishing.
