This authentic colour photograph, captured in 1962, documents a quintessential street scene on Union Street in Glasgow, Scotland. The archival image features a Leyland Titan PD2 double-decker bus (Route 55 to Springburn) in the classic yellow and green livery of the Glasgow Corporation Transport. The bus is adorned with an advertisement for McGavin Mavara Tea. Set against the city’s impressive Victorian architecture, the scene includes iconic mid-century details such as a large red “GUINNESS is good for you” neon sign and storefronts for R.W. Forsyth Ltd. and Majex. The cobbled street is busy with pedestrians in early-1960s fashion and vintage vehicles, including a Humber Hawk and a Malcolm Campbell delivery van. This factual record captures the industrial and commercial energy of Glasgow at the height of the 20th century. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
