Stoke's D road shortly after opening (notice coned off section ; - )) :

 

 

Gateshead '70s -

Bristol '70s -

 

 

 

 

Caption says 1970s (Somerset) - but the Metro makes it at least 1980. More pertinently, the mkII Cav puts it forward at least one more year to '81.

two other Swedes exchange a quick word in heavy traffic sometime in 1975 - the location? New Haven

'like' for all of these pics.

I've only seen one of these before -the second one.

Especially like the sixth one up with Ross's Bakeries.

Cheers, yeah - it's got a real 10 Rillington Place / Dickensian slum look to it. The Viva looks out of place - a thing from the distant future.

Why did advertising hoardings / billboards die out? They were eveywhere when I was growing up and have gradually all but disappeared. Presumably the answer is because companies felt their investment wasn't working. But why did it take them 10-20 years to work this out?? Or why did this kind of advertising stop working??
