London Street Hawkers, Selling Baked Potatoes (1890) Crowned jauntily with spuds, portable ovens such as this were a regular sight on London’s streets during autumn and winter in the late nineteenth century. Edgar Scamell took the photograph for the National Photographic Record and Survey (1897-1910), a project to document buildings, ceremonies and customs. It’s thought that around ten tons of potatoes were sold in this manner every day. Baked beans were unlikely to have been a filling, though they didn’t arrive in the UK until 1886 and were sold by Fortnum & Mason as a fancy foreign delicacy. This photograph, along with its description, appeared in Time Out magazine’s "Top 40 Best Photos of London" collection.
