As someone who grew up in Cheam this is the first time I have ever heard of ‘The Cheam Music & Piano Salon’.

It was probably what we would recognise as a record / sheetmusic shop rather then a concert venue. The did tend to have pompous names back then. It's around late 20's early 30's. Very nice!

Love to go back in time and spend a Hancocks half hour in there and bring back an armful of sheet music.

On a different topic...have you watched Michael Spicer's "Modern Columbo" on YouTube? It's brilliant.

Feels very similar to the 'Music and Smoking Emporium' that was open in Peckham about 20 years ago...
