Came across this picture and reproduction advert from Leo Bloom. The shop (151-153 Gt Hampton St) disappeared between 1950 and 1955. The advertising was apparently very self-confident, as can be seen. At the time, as was usual, adverts covered the front page, and usually had a topical point. Thus , when Belisha beacons were tintroduced in 1934, it read "Although the ministry of Transport wishes pedestrians to be distinguished, the best way to do this is to wear Loo Bloom clothes.". Another (when West Brom. reached the Cup final in 1935) mentioned the "FINAL decision on a suit should be made at Loo Blooms West Brom shop"
