This authentic 1960s colour photograph captures the electric nocturnal atmosphere of Piccadilly Circus in 1964. The scene is bathed in a warm red and orange glow from the massive “Coca-Cola” sign, which declares the drink “Refreshes You Best.” Adjacent to this, the iconic “Guinness Time” clock and the “BP world-wide” flag display illuminate the junction alongside signs for “Skol Lager” and “Air India.” In the background, the London Pavilion building sparkles with lights for “Max Factor,” “Gordon’s Gin,” “Martell,” and “Wrigley’s.” A black London taxi and the blurred shape of a red double-decker bus move through the intersection, while pedestrians in dark winter coats walk along the illuminated pavements. Traditional globed street lamps add a classic touch to this vibrant mid-century cityscape. This digital download is a stunning record of the West End’s neon heritage, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of vintage urban wall art.
