Légende

Old-fashioned London shopkeeper, 1845. 'The old shopkeeper, with his sober brown breeches and gaiters, powdered hair and pigtail, who condescended to wait upon his own customers, assisted by an apprentice or two, who swept out the shop, cleaned the shoes, and retired to rest under the counter, and who, with the master and mistress, felt nervous if they slept out of the sound of Bow-bells, have all passed away...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
