Martin Parr is brilliant at capturing the moment. In the meantime, I love this. You'd assume old photo, until you cast your eye into the background...

Quote The first sign to be illuminated was a Perrier advertisement in 1908, which used incandescent lightbulbs. Neon was first used for a Bovril sign in the 1940s https://oceanoutdoor.com/ocean-news/news/ancestry-turns-back-the-clock-on-the-world-famous-piccadilly-lights-in-nostalgic-showcase-of-illuminated-signs/ Austat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
