Subject: Bradford C. T. 755 (FKU 755)
Chassis: BUT 9611T
Body: Weymann H33/26R
Location: Bradford, Forster Square
Date: early-1960s

A beautiful and technically superb shot in Forster Square, a negative so sharp you can almost tell what's in the jars of sweets in the shop just to the right of 755! Behind, scaffolding is up, I suspect to re-erect the large advertising hoarding after painting the wall.

The advert on the side of 755 doesn't immediately look unusual, but electronics were still rather basic at the time of this photograph and were nothing like as prevalent as they are today.

From an original negative in the David Beilby collection, photographer unknown
