Description: | Pet stalls were amongst the most popular in the Caledonian and other street markets during the 1920 and 30s. Goldfish and tropical fish were on sale alongside an array of birds, cats, dogs and other animals. Some of the traders from Club Row Market sold their animals near the tree and flower pitches. The necessary food, cages, collars and glass bowls could be bought in abundance.
Cyril Arapoff produced many images of the popular market, as did other notable photographers, such as Bill Brandt. |
