    3. Terry, Your search for photos of Baker Street continues I see. I've a couple of suggestions for you. 1) Try to persuade the "Mercury" to ask Leicester locals to submit photos of the streets around the area that their offices now occupy. They may also be able to create quiet a series of resident's photos of now redeveloped areas. I have some I think, of the old Halford Street fruit & veg wholesale market. 2nd) Have you asked your family (including cousins/uncles/aunts) or known former neighbours to search if they have interesting photos? You never know what will turn up. Peter Holmes Western Australia. Skype ; p.g.holmes [HOLMES (Witham on the Hill, Manthorpe, Spalding, Pinchbeck, Donington then Leicestershire)].
