London 1950.
A candid street scene from London in 1950 captures men browsing secondhand books at a makeshift stall. Dressed in dark overcoats and hats, they are gathered around wooden crates overflowing with volumes on a Poland Street pavement. Prominent signs for a Westminster City Council car park and a garage confirm the location, while a large billboard advertising “BLACK & WHITE” SCOTCH WHISKY contributes to the atmosphere of a bustling, everyday moment in the post-war city.
