1891 Bone Coarse Fishery Iron Ironmonger Ironmongers Monger Salt Selling Trevithick
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this advertisement from the annals of the 19th century, showcasing the wares of Trevithick and Mabbot Ironmongers. This ironmonger's advertisement, hailing from the year 1891, invites the viewer to explore a world of industrial delights. At the heart of this advertisement are two intriguing offerings: Coarse Fishery Salt and Bone Crushers. The former, a prized commodity for those engaged in the fishing industry, would have been used to preserve and enhance the flavor of freshly caught fish. The latter, a practical and essential tool for butchers and households alike, would have been used to crush animal bones for making bone broth or fertilizer. The advertisement, with its richly detailed illustrations, transports us back to an era when the iron industry was at the forefront of technological innovation and economic growth. The image of the ironmonger, with his sturdy apron and confident posture, exudes a sense of expertise and reliability. The background, filled with an array of iron goods, from shovels to hinges, underscores the vastness of the ironmonger's inventory. This advertisement is a testament to the importance of ironmongers in the industrial age, who played a crucial role in supplying the necessary tools and materials for various industries and households. As we admire the intricacies of this historical advertisement, we are reminded of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the past, and the enduring allure of the iron industry.
