St Paul's crypt chapel, Tottenham Court Road and the Zoological Gardens are among the London scenes recorded by Francis Frith & Co., the photographic firm named after Francis Frith (1822–1898) that continued beyond his career. The material dates from 1895–1926 and also includes Spencer House and views around Hyde Park, with signs, vehicles, people and incidental details placing each view in its period. These are published reproductions from illustrated books, not original photographic prints.
