A view of the front elevations of shop buildings at 22-24 Old Bond Street, Mayfair. Number 22 to the right is four storeys high and four windows wide. The ground-floor carries the name of William Sorsby Limited, the centre for oriental art and books. The facade includes a juliet balcony running the full width of the first-floor and Corinthian columns at the second with a sculpted head at the top of each bay. An estate agent's board offering offices to let can be seen at the third floor. At number 23 the shop is to let but carries the name of the Bahamas Islands. The building is four storeys high and three windows wide. The middle window on the first-floor is topped by a pediment. Number 24 was built in the mid-1920s for the prominent perfumers Atkinsons and its Portland stone facade retains its rich decoration also in the Burlington Gardens side elevation. Its spire can be seen at the top of the image. In Old Bond Street, the coat of arms of Westminster and the Gresham Grasshopper, a symbol of the City, can be seen either side of the entrance.
