I love looking at these old shop fronts.
Like CDM I’m frustrated by being unable to upload images as there are lots I’d like to. Perhaps I will email you too Mick G if that’s ok.
Brand of tobacco I’d never heard of before in one of these pictures : ‘My Flake’.

All the Old Calabars one on top of the other is interesting way to display, I'd never seen a pic with so many before, the pair of 2 boys starches is a treat

 I've seen a few My Flake tins over the yesrs.  Plain blue with gold writing, nothing special.

Manufactured by either Ogdens, or C D Fothergill and Company.
