Text from youtube "Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? I love this footage of shoppers on Oxford Street in 1931. I’m going to buy all my gifts locally this year, no Oxford Street for me – too crazy!
Londoners find full value for the pound in customary expedition in search of Christmas gifts. Cameraman on top of car taking shots of crowds walking along Oxford Street. Shots of same crowds walking along. Shop window display. Shoppers can same.
Feet of people walking. Street vendors selling wares. Little boy stands and watches one mechanical toy. Good shot of top of Selfridges with Xmas decorations. Father Xmas in alcove bows. (This is not a close shot). Panning to street below. Group of girls with faces pressed hard against window, taken from inside same."
