EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1900s with this print of Lemon Street, Truro, Cornwall. The bustling street scene captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the shop front of Family T. Rowe Grocer at 83 Lemon Street. In this snapshot frozen in time, a member of staff wearing an apron warmly welcomes a customer into the store. The shop window is adorned with an array of tempting products on display for sale. From aromatic Cornish coffee and rich Royal teas to delectable Cairns' Scotch jams and mouthwatering Venetian biscuits, every corner holds treasures waiting to be discovered. The shelves are filled with goodies like Cornubia Eden cakes that surely delighted locals and visitors alike. Photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully captured this slice of history, immortalizing not just a grocery store but also the spirit and charm of Truro's past. This photograph transports us back to simpler times when community connections were forged through personal interactions at local shops. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, let us appreciate the craftsmanship behind it while imagining ourselves strolling down Lemon Street over a century ago – taking in its sights, sounds, and tantalizing aromas.
