The crooked street leading from the real scene
Of Lady Dedlock's midnight tryst with 10 to Mr..
Tulkinghorn's house has another Dickens land
mark-the Old Curiosity Shop There was a
rival claimant for the same honor in another
street near by but the shabby old rookery dis
appeared many years ago and the quaint rag
shop in Portsmouth-st. has remained In exclu-
sive enjoyment OF the prestige Of being the
imaginary home OF Little Nell and her grand
father. 1t was either an old-book stall or
tunkshop in Dickenss time. and during the last
twenty years II has been occupied by Mr. Poole
as a paper and-rag shop. with an incidental
trade In photographs and souvenirs during the
summer season. 1t stands at an angle OF the
roadway midway between Portugal-st. and Lin
coins Inn Fields. and is picturesque old struct-
ure which answers the novelist's description as
zone Of those receptaces for old and curious
things which seem to crouch In odd corners OF
this town and to hide their musty treasures from
the public eye in jealousy and distrust." There
are two or three dark rooms on the ground floor.
and there is an upper story overlapping the
show windows and two doorways and sur
mounted with a high-pitched. red-tiled roof.
Either Of the upper windows will answer as the
lookout for Little Nell's bedroom. and on the
side, as a guarantee Of good faith and complete
refutation Of the claims of rival ragshops, is
the inscription: 1.-The Old Curiosity Shop. I'm
