Lots of detail and a Harrods van to boot!. I love the sign of the pram. (Use "View Full Size" to magnify).

Fountain Pen. Pencils. Drapery Stores. Cash Chemists. House repairs.
Harrods van has lettering in caps and it is NOT electric so maybe be early 20s. They built 60 electric in the later 20s and switched to script for their logo.
Well spotted Hugh ! The vintage pram stuck way up there.
Oh how I remember walking along here so many times, from 1939 _ 1967, beautiful memories
I see a shop on the left there," Grenways Stationers " a fairly large shop,if I remember correctly in the 50'/60's it had two floors. I remember I bought my Painting By Numbers in this shop. It sold alot of art materials,canvases,paints, etc. Wonderful shop back in the day. Often wondered why it closed. On the otherside of this shop but further down towards Harringay railway station but before the bridge, you had Duvals which was a sports shop that sold almost anything in sports equipment,the likes of Ice Skates,Roller Skates, well the ice rink ( Arena ) was just past the bridge and you had the roller skating rink at Alley Pally. Wonderful memories.
Many thanks Hugh! Interesting read.
