Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful scene from the past! This enchanting photograph captures the exterior of the Royal Agricultural Hall in Islington, London, during the Confectioners & Bakers Exhibition held in 1905. The grand entrance of the hall is adorned with beautiful floral decorations, inviting visitors to indulge in the sweet treats and delectable delights within. The Royal Agricultural Hall, a prominent feature of Islington's rich history, played host to various exhibitions showcasing the latest innovations and creations in agriculture, horticulture, and related industries. However, this particular exhibition focused on the art of confectionery and baking. The excitement is palpable as attendees gather around the entrance, eager to partake in the sugary splendors that await them. The poster at the entrance, featuring the jovial character Little Tich, adds an element of whimsy and merriment to the occasion. Little Tich, a well-known British music hall performer and comedian, was a popular figure during the early 1900s. His inclusion in the poster not only attracted a larger crowd but also added to the overall festive atmosphere. This photograph, taken in 1905, offers a glimpse into the past and showcases the charm and allure of the Confectioners & Bakers Exhibition. It is a captivating reminder of the tradition and craftsmanship that went into creating the confectionery and baked goods of yesteryears.
