CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Blake's (Confectionary) Limited first appear in Post Office Directories for London in 1928, with their address given as Queen Victoria Street, E.C.4. There is another company similarly listed as confectionary retailers, called 'Blakes', but it is highly unlikely that the two businesses were one and the same. Further confusion may arise from the fact that the 'other' Blakes had premises for a time in Victoria Street, S.W.1.
