EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the 1960s, Mr. Sidney Goldberg, the managing director of Welbeck Minicabs in London, proudly accepts the first of his new fleet of 300 Ford Cortinas. The image captures the excitement and progress of the mini cab industry in the British capital during this era. Mr. Goldberg, dressed in a sharp business suit and tie, is seen shaking hands with a representative from Ford, as he takes possession of the sleek and modern Cortina. The other men in the background, also dressed in business attire, look on approvingly. The arrival of this new fleet marked a significant expansion for Welbeck Minicabs, a company that was quickly gaining a reputation for providing reliable and efficient taxi services to Londoners. The Ford Cortina, a popular and stylish car model of the time, was a perfect fit for the growing mini cab industry. Its spacious interior and powerful engine made it an ideal choice for the demanding needs of a taxi service. With its distinctive grille and sharp lines, the Cortina exuded an air of sophistication and modernity. The 1960s were a time of great change and innovation in the transportation industry. The mini cab industry, in particular, was undergoing a period of rapid growth, as more and more people began to prefer the convenience and affordability of taxis over traditional bus and train services. Mr. Goldberg and Welbeck Minicabs were at the forefront of this trend, and the arrival of this new fleet of Cortinas was a testament to their forward-thinking approach to business. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of mini cab companies and their fleet acquisitions during the 1960s. It is a reminder of the importance of innovation and expansion in business, and the role that the automobile industry played in shaping the transportation landscape of London and beyond.
