Caption

Regent Street, London, 1912, (1935). 'Leisurely Days in Regent Street...long before traffic had become a problem. Although petrol-driven vehicles were fast ousting the horse-drawn types, traffic signals, pedestrian crossings and other devices introduced for the safety of road users were as yet unnecessary...' In the foreground is a No.6 bus to Kensal Rise, with a 'sandwich man' on the pavement. From "The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures". [Odhams Press Ltd., London, 1935]
