More about this scene
This detail from R84037 (page 34) is a reminder of how our streets were once filled with a profusion of tobacco advertisements - Capstan, Player's, St Julien, St Bruno, Gold Flake, Senior Service - hardly any famous brand of the time is missing. The lad outside the shop is wearing a sleeveless jumper, very characteristic of the period, and a more informal version of the buttoned waistcoat worn by the elderly man on the left.
