A slightly better picture of this one in West Ealing.
It is Balham Telephone Exchange, I think, 67 Upper Tooting Road.
The two painted ads are at the bottom of the escalator at South Wimbledon Station.

What do we reckon about these? The first 2 are at South Wimbledon tube station, and they look to be painted rather than posters. The other is in Tooting. It is still a telephone exchange but there is a new buzzer and entryphone opposite.
@royreed.bsky.social Unfortunately, though not unsurprisingly, this one is now gone too.
