I love you could buy knick-knacks / arty decorations from hawkers.
And toy lambs again!
I wonder if any old toy lambs still exist. Will keep my eyes open.

What a wonderful picture of everyday life. You can near the cries see the dogs AND cats , see the variety of clothes worn by working people and wonder at the variety of items sold in the streets, all now obtainable at B & Q or Tescos.

These are the documentary photography of their day. A great insight into every day life. I can’t believe they were no bigger than a thumbnail – the detail in them is extraordinary.

These are a wonderful insight into days gone by, it seems that almost anything could be bought on the street. Interesting to see the fashions too.

Very evocative images of a bygone age! Another wonderful set of images of the old cries.

Fascinating as always! — Which antiques did the Images Seller sell…? And notice such great slogans from the past: “O! When they are all sold I shan’t have any, O!”

Love & Peace
