EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the rich history and heritage of the Parish of St Andrew in Norwich. Titled "Trade signs: Merchants Marks of Parish of St Andrew, Norwich" this artwork by an English School artist from the 20th century offers a glimpse into the visual identifiers that were once used by merchants in this bustling parish. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Cecil A Meadows' book, "Trade Signs and their Origin". Published in 1957, this book delves into the fascinating world of trade signs and their significance. The author himself provided illustrations for his work, including this lithograph. Intriguingly, these merchant marks served as logos or trademarks for businesses during that era. Each mark represented a unique identifier for individual merchants operating within St Andrew's Parish. These symbols not only distinguished one business from another but also reflected the intellectual property associated with each establishment. Through this lithograph print, we are transported back to a time when trade signs played an essential role in commerce. It serves as a reminder of how visual cues have long been utilized to identify businesses and create brand recognition. As we admire this historical artwork, let us appreciate its contribution to our understanding of trade practices and cultural heritage within Norwich's vibrant past.
