There's a Mary E Gluckstein, nee Chapman, whose father in law Philip was listed as a Leeds leather merchant. http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/search.p ... .htm#I5587

I love that it could have been a woman running her own business in the 20s/30s too. Thanks for your help.

I went down Roundhay Road today on the bus.The CA accountants sign has been taken down herehttp://goo.gl/maps/xGH7CHid away behind it is another old ghost sign of Leeds.It looked in fairly good condition, lovely old sign writing.The top bit was hard to read as the bus passed by, but the bottom said 'Fashion Corner''
