EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1905, showcases a bustling street scene in Glasgow, Scotland, during the Edwardian era. The focus of the image is on two prominent advertisement hoardings for James Templeton & Co and A.G. Kidston & Co, both located on Great Clyde Street. James Templeton & Co, established in Glasgow in 1846, was a renowned carpet manufacturing company that gained international recognition for its high-quality products. The advertisement boasts of their "Royal Carpets," which were favored by royalty and the aristocracy. The company's success is evident in the grandeur of their advertisement, which features an elegant design and intricate detailing. On the other hand, A.G. Kidston & Co, an iron, steel, and metal merchants, had been in business since 1859. Their advertisement is equally impressive, with bold lettering and a striking image of a hammer and anvil, symbolizing their strength and expertise in the metal industry. The advertisement also highlights their extensive range of products, including "Steel, Iron, and Metal of every description." The photograph offers a glimpse into the industrial heart of Glasgow during the early 1900s. The large, imposing buildings, with their ornate facades and towering chimneys, reflect the city's status as a major industrial hub. The presence of these two prominent advertisements underscores the vibrant trade and commerce that thrived in the area, making Great Clyde Street a hive of activity.
