Description: | Dr F Barber lived at 38 Brookfield Park, now in the borough of Camden. The premises served as both his home and his surgery, where he practised as a GP from 1956. Many of Dr Barber's patients were first-generation immigrant families. They often gave him, as gifts, national dolls representing their homeland. This one is wearing a traditional Czech folk costume, or 'kroje'. Dr Barber kept the dolls in his waiting room and let the waiting children play with them. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | Public services Communities | Temporal: | 1960 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
