Description

Caret Down
This is remarkable collection of historic photographs documenting rural life in England in the 1920s and 1930s. Take a trip back in time with: *Farm scenes of horsemen with their teams at plough, carting roots, drilling corn or returning from a day's labour *Town scenes with horsemen working as carriers and deliverymen *Motorbikes and their owners, buses, charabancs and a wide range of commercial freight and motorised vans *The Ipswich docks, road-building and the railways *Cottagers at their doors, reflecting the rural poverty of the time and clothing that in some cases harks back to the Victorian age *And more! The Titshall brothers were jobbing photographers based in Ipswich. They went out by motorbike to the surrounding countryside to secure these photographs, charging their clients a few pence. The original glass plates, which survived by good fortune, are now part of the Kindred archive. This is an incredible work of history and photography that will entertain and enlighten.
