1. Title: A Warning of Caution: Devils Elbow Road Sign in the Scottish Highlands, 1960s This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the essence of travel in the Scottish Highlands during the 1960s. The image features an iconic road sign, located on the Cairnwell Pass, warning drivers of the approaching Devils Elbow, a notorious double hairpin bend. The sign, with its bold red letters and ominous black background, stands as a testament to the challenges and thrills of touring the Scottish countryside during this era. The rugged mountain landscape in the background adds to the sense of adventure and isolation, as the winding road leads into the distance, disappearing amongst the mist and the clouds. The bus, a common mode of transportation for tourists during the 1960s, can be seen in the foreground, dwarfed by the vastness of the mountains and the open sky. The Devils Elbow, a dangerous and challenging section of the road, was notorious amongst drivers and tourists alike. The double hairpin bend required careful navigation, especially in adverse weather conditions. The sign served as a crucial reminder of the need for caution and attention, ensuring the safety of those who dared to explore the breathtaking beauty of the Scottish Highlands. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when travel was an adventure, and the simple pleasures of the open road and the beauty of nature were the true attractions. The Devils Elbow road sign stands as a symbol of the challenges and rewards of touring the Scottish Highlands, a tradition that continues to this day.
