Beskrivning

This book showcases the photographs of Greg Booth taken on his periodic visits to a wide variety of locations across the South West and the Midlands between 1966 and 1975. The images focus on buses and trolleybuses, the majority of which display pre-National Bus Company liveries, and have never been published before.The buses and trolleybuses may be the main subject of these images, but every picture tells a story. They feature myriad locations, which either no longer exist or are changed beyond all recognition. They comprise quiet roads with little traffic, period cars, vans, lorries and buses, and people and the fashions of the day. Advertisements of well-known products, some of which are still with us today and others long-lost, shops, businesses, buildings and churches are all present.Featuring a fascinating and nostalgic selection of contemporary images, Henry Conn documents the buses and trolleybuses of the Midlands and South West regions of sixty years ago.

Mer om författaren

Born in Aberdeen, Henry Conn’s first memory of trams was the Bridges route between the River Don and River Dee in 1958. His keen interest in buses, trams and trolleybuses developed from the 1960s and with his own collection of views and access to the wonderful archives of David and John Clarke, his first book was published in 2010.
