Description: | London Transport began experimenting with livery advertising in the late 1960s. This bus was the first to be painted with all-over advertising, which was for Silexine Paints.
The bus, painted mainly pale green and white, was an R.M.-type on route 11 from Hammersmith to Liverpool Street via Chelsea. It has been parked to allow photographers to take publicity shots.
In the left of this picture is the doorway to the Chelsea Drugstore, immortalised in the Rolling Stones' song of 1968, 'You Can't Always Get What You Want'. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Identity and Icons | Temporal: | Aug 1969 - Sep 1970 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
