Taken inside the abandoned West Park Mental Hospital in Epsom, England. The place presumably looked pretty effing spick and span in its heyday, what with all those vacuum cleaners on standby. Check out the West Park Flickr pool for more.
Interior of Kings Theatre, Bondi Beach in the 1930s. Part of a new batch of images just uploaded to the State Library of New South Wales Flickr account.
This is remarkably similar to the mantelpiece in my own lounge room, which is also in greyscale. (From English Homes Vol III no. 1, Late Tudor, published in 1922.)
