Maison Lyons, 362-366 Oxford Street, Westminster, Greater London
A Ragtime Band playing on a stage in the newly-built Maison Lyons department store and restaurant at 362-366 Oxford Street. At this time, J Lyons and Company provided music in all of their larger tea shops and restaurants, and the firm even maintained a Band Department to hire performers. The store was completed in 1916, and the photograph was taken for J Lyons and Company itself.
