EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the joyous coronation festivities of May 1953. Standing tall and proud, we see a magnificent Coronation bus adorned with the emblematic insignia of Salford City Transport. It is a symbol of both regality and everyday life, beautifully capturing the essence of this historic moment. On its first day out, this double-decker omnibus embarked on an extraordinary journey through the bustling streets of Salford. With its vibrant red exterior contrasting against the grey cityscape, it became an instant spectacle for all who witnessed it passing by. This iconic vehicle would continue to traverse different routes each day throughout the coronation celebrations, spreading excitement and cheer wherever it went. As we gaze at this remarkable image frozen in time, we are transported back to an era filled with pomp and grandeur. The air is thick with anticipation as people eagerly line up along sidewalks, hoping to catch a glimpse of their beloved monarch's commemorative transport. This photograph not only captures a significant moment in history but also serves as a reminder that even during times of great national celebration, life continues on its usual course. It immortalizes both royalty and commoners alike - united in their shared enthusiasm for this monumental occasion. Thanks to Mirrorpix's meticulous preservation efforts through Memory Lane Prints, we can now relive these cherished memories from over half a century ago.
