London Night

London Night

Photographs: Harold Burdekin

Text: John Morrison

Publisher: Collins

Pictures: 50

Year: 1934

Comments: Hardcover with illustrated dust jacket, 252 mm × 317 mm

This picture gallery features atmospheric images of London streets in the 1930s, before the Blitz, before the clean air act, before sodium lighting. It was a city of gloomy back streets lit by dim lamps, with forbidding alleys and the occasional welcoming light. The photographs are from a book called London Night, by John Morrison and Harold Burdekin, which was published in 1934.
