Reading says: spend, spend, spend!

A sort of Zeitgeist picture as First Beeline Dennis Trident/Plaxton President TN33144 (LR02LWZ) threads its way past the concrete awfulness of the Broad Street Mall, Reading. This dates from 1971 and names itself "Reading's Favourite Shopping Centre." We are clearly being exhorted to spend, and what we should spend on is "Life and Style". Beauty and the approval of our peers follows, it is implied...Personally, I am quite happy with life and I feel I can dispense with the style element.
