Description: | Oxford Street shoppers hurry down one of the busiest shopping streets in Europe in spite of the rain. The streets are almost empty of vehicle traffic however, apart from an open-top B.-type bus.
Some of the shops, such as Dorothy Perkins and Dollond Opticians still trade in the West End. Waring and Gillow was one of the original department stores established in Oxford Street. It became an international company specialising in furniture, and was known for hiring the best designers. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Leisure Cityscape | Temporal: | 10 Aug 1923 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
