Demolition, rebuilding and buildings on the brink of loss fill these prints from Disappearing London, published by The Studio in 1927 with text by E. Beresford Chancellor, edited by Geoffrey Holme. William Walcot drew Piccadilly Circus and the Bank of England, Randolph Schwabe the Regent Street district, and Percy Robertson Piccadilly and the old Waterloo Bridge, while Ian Strang contributed the Savoy Steps and All Souls Church. The Hop Exchange, Cloth Fair and the demolition of Devonshire House show smaller streets and buildings being altered or removed between the wars.
