This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Sheffield in the 1930s. Standing proudly at the heart of this industrial city is W Tyzak, Sons, and Turner Ltd. 's Little London Works. The sight of this iconic building evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when craftsmanship and manufacturing reigned supreme. The Elephant brand logo prominently displayed on the facade serves as a testament to the company's reputation for producing top-quality edge tools. With their rich history dating back decades, it's no wonder that W Tyzak, Sons, and Turner Ltd. became synonymous with excellence in tool manufacturing. One can only imagine the hive of activity within these walls - skilled craftsmen meticulously honing blades, shaping handles, and perfecting each tool with unwavering dedication. This image offers a glimpse into an era when Sheffield was renowned worldwide for its steel industry. Beyond being just manufacturers, W Tyzak, Sons, and Turner Ltd. were also savvy advertisers who utilized trade catalogues to showcase their extensive range of products. Their trademarks adorned countless exhibitions across the country while medals proudly displayed their accolades. Preserved within Sheffield City Archives' Local Studies collection as reference 338.4 SST. , this photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to an industrious period that shaped Sheffield's identity as an epicenter for quality craftsmanship.
