Antique photography/print shops in London?
I'll be in London next week and am looking for a good seller of antique photographs and/or quality reprints of the city and environs. Something along the same lines of Fratelli Alinari in Rome. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Thanks!

My recommendation: Camden Passage in Islington - it's full of antique shops, many of whom sell old photos maps and prints - the outside market also has several stalls that sell all that stuff as well as old post cards (about 50p each).
It's worth having a look for antique shows and collectors fairs when you're here - you'll get details in the Evening Standard or Time Out.

Warwick Leadlay Gallery in Greenwich if you want to take a day trip. Their web site is www.warwickleadlay.com. They had lots of antique book prints and maps. You can also order on line. I have done both and been happy with their service.

I thought I had received a similar request lately! 
There are some neat shops off Saint Martin's Lane in the Theater district. If you're planning on going to Oxford, I remember wonderful print shops in Oxford, too.
