Peter, like many of us have always liked the strange shop names when translated into English. Can anyone identify where this was taken, Wanchai?

Queen’s Road Central
I think one is on QRC looking east. “Hang On” Ivory shop has been around for quite a long period of time but no longer now. The taller building on the right I think is the King’s Theatre building.
Hi Moddsey,
Hi Moddsey,
You are probably correct. I've just noticed what might be a dome on top of the furthest(?) building on the right. If so, that ties in with several other photographs taken looking East on QRC. Andrew
King's Theatre Building
Yes, the King Theatre had a dome and confirms the location. One is looking east on QRC. As indicated here , the address of the "Hang On Ivory Factory" was 39A Queen's Road Central.
