The Great Fuel Shortage
Housewives bring their prams to carry away their fuel for the week at the Nine Elms depot of the Gas Light and Coke Company in Nine Elms Lane, south London. As the coal stocks dwindle, people in South London queue all day for coke. Prams and barrows are brought to carry away the 56 lbs of coke allowed to each person.
