outside James Smith & Sons Umbrellas. ☂️ Founded in 1830 by James Smith, he was amongst the first to use Fox Frames for his umbrellas, and the business grew so well he had to move to 55 New Oxford Street where the Victorian store has remained pretty much unaltered ever since. Do you know it? It’s a great way to step back in time! 🙌🏼
