We're not worthy, We're not worthy.

Thank you for posting these pics.

I remember being dragged along to the city cash tailors with the provy line for the school rigoot.......

Great pics and so many memories.

Thanks all. Must be nearly halfway through the archive now.

Alex - the one captioned 'southeast of Airdrie St' (maybe '...from...' would have been clearer) shows Cowcaddens St, virtually the same as the next shot, from a less acute angle. Can't remember if Airdrie St still actually existed then.

photographs you have captured a wonderful time of change in the city
let me buy you a pint some time.

Asolutely brilliant. The King St/Dunlop St ones I especially liked, as its great to see the area around St Enoch's before the demolition. The Cowcaddens pics also, as my Dad used to stay in Airdrie Street. Fantastic, very well done

Incredible photos, every bit as important as those by John R. Hume.
You may have already answered this but will you be giving copies to the Mitchell ?
Not saying you should do this, just curious.

Thank you, thank you Streapadair !

I followed your trip from start to finish, imagining I was looking out from the top deck of a tram or bus in the late 1960's, before my family left for Australia.

Fantastic memories and thank you for them.
