EDITORS COMMENTS
A Dazzling Night at Piccadilly Circus: A Journey Back in Time Step into the vibrant world of Piccadilly Circus in the early 1960s, as captured in this photograph. The scene is set against the backdrop of a dark, starless night, illuminated by the kaleidoscopic glow of neon lights. The iconic London landmark comes alive with a riot of colors and shapes, as various advertisements for brands such as Max Factor, Associated Rediffusion, Gordon's Gin, Wrigley's Chewing Gum, BP, Skol, and Bristol Tipped Cigarettes, beckon passersby. The neon signs of the Piccadilly Pavilion Theatre and the L-shaped billboard add to the visual spectacle, creating an electric atmosphere that is both alluring and intriguing. The lemon and hart logo of Hart's, a popular brand of sherry, can also be spotted among the myriad of advertisements. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era when advertising was a bold and creative endeavor. The neon lights, with their bright and inviting hues, were a symbol of progress and modernity, and Piccadilly Circus was the heart of it all. The energy and excitement of the city are palpable, making this image a must-see for anyone interested in London's rich history and cultural heritage.
