It depicts the social & commercial life of this distinctive area, showing familiar attractions such as Madame Tussaud`s & Lord`s Cricket Ground as well as fine Georgian houses, busy thoroughfares, long-vanished Underground statiosn & well-known shops. This unique collection of photgraphs, many of which appear in print for the first time, will jog the memory & stimulate the imagination of old & young, residents & visitors alike.
