Re: H Gee - Cambridge
Here are a couple of pictures (acknowledgement Museum of Cambridge) showing the interior of Gees and the famous Mrs Gee herself.

Re: H Gee - Cambridge
Some more pics of Phillip Gee and his mother Priscilla Goldstein (so is Phillip's name Goldstein?) presumably the name of Gee was used to hide the fact that the Gee's were Jewish after the persecution by the Nazis in WW2

Re: H Gee - Cambridge
So sad that it's gone I never knew the shop, in fact I've never been to Cambridge (yet). We have a similar shop here in Weymouth, think he stocks everything you could ever want although these days he seems to concentrate on repairing vacuum cleaners and irons it's a great shop and I often go in just for a natter and to see all the others who gather there for the same reason.
