A bit of local interest...the entire end of this terrace on Treadway Street in Hackney, London E2 still displays an advert for an historic London company - John Tann & Co. The lettering would originally have been painted in - probably in black. It would have been very impressive. It still looks good today if a little neglected - the letters set in relief into the rendered wall.
We have a very good run of their old document safes at the moment which we have restored and reimagined for use in today's modern interiors. You can find them on-line, in-store and they are also for sale on the lower ground floor at Selfridges, London.
