Description: | To the left of the Strand in this picture is Strand Palace Hotel, which still operates in the 1920s Art Deco-style building. Young people from the jazz age used to meet here to socialise and dance the charleston or the tango. St Mary-le-Strand church is in the distance.
There is a poster for a silent film, Little Old New York, starring Marion Davies. She was a well-known actress who managed to cross over to the 'talkies' when they became popular. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Cityscape | Temporal: | Aug 1923 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
