Leicester ghost signs: Sid Mottram Cycles


I found these ghost signs while exploring the Narborough Road in Leicester, recently named (through gritted teeth) as Britain's most multicultural high street by the Daily Mail.

Sid Mottram Cycles closed in 1985 and the premises is now occupied by a barber's shop.

Confirming my theory that immigration often preserves or restores British traditions, the barber offers wet shaves to his customers.
