Shaftesbury Avenue in London, 1949
Have a look at this great 18Megapixel picture from London in the late 1940ies!
Can you see the pickpocker in the brown suit of stealing the wallet of the gentleman just over the hood of the car to the left? The clue about the year 1949 came from the “Treasure Hunt” that seems to be playing in the “Apollo Theatre”. This play was only on for a couple of months during 1949.

The man you’re referring to has his hand in his own hip pocket and is walking a few feet behind the man pictured to his right. He is not a pickpocket. Also, it’s “1940’s.”
