London, England1942Pre-linenGood

Sepia photomechanical postcard of the Mansion House and Bank of England intersection in the City of London, looking northwest toward the Royal Exchange. The Mansion House (official residence of the Lord Mayor of London) dominates the right, its classical portico and decorative sculptural figures visible. The Royal Exchange's Corinthian columns are visible at left. A statue stands on a plinth at center, and double-decker buses, motor vehicles, and pedestrians animate the busy financial district street. The reverse carries a wartime morale quotation from the Prime Minister: "Let us all strive without failing in faith or in duty." Published by Photochrom Co. Ltd., Royal Tunbridge Wells.
