Art-hater Daley and his toadies (including those in the establishment art community) wasted more than $100 million to kill it. But all they did was inspire the true artists of the city to make their art even better. For more detail, see www.flickr.com/photos/10413297@N03/5645091909.
Following the formation of London Transport - the London Passenger Transport Board - in 1933, the undertaking set about a massive programme of investment, modernisation and expansion. One often over-looked change that was instituted was the widespread adoption of fixed bus stops across the Board's massive operating territories that covered red Central area and green Country area buses as well as Green line coaches.
Whereas trams, and their replacements the trolleybuses, had a stronger heritage of fixed stops the 'bus had traditionally been more 'flexible' in terms of where it could be hailed to board and alight. The centre of London had first seen serious experimentation with 'fixed' stops, and the design of the post and flag, in the early 1920s and by the late 1930s this programme was being rolled out across the rest of the city and out into the suburbs. This saw a change in the design of both post and flag with the concrete post, manufactured by LT at the Parsons Green workshops, and the flags themselves being re-designed by Hans Schleger in c.1935 to simplify them and that led to the later 'self-washing' "boat" design.
I have seen the publicity leaflets for the introduction of fixed stops along certain corridors and this leaflet is part of such a campaign. It offers a "set of hints for passengers" advising to signal the driver to show you wish to board the vehicle, the types of stops (request and compulsory) as well as hints on "Safety First".
The leaflet, from July 1938, is printed by the Shenval Press who would develop a reputation for fine work, and ends with the slogan "London Transport wants to serve". Sadly no designer is shown.
The Olbrich Biergarten offers great views for sunset, not to mention a good variety of brews and snacks for a post ride treat.

The vandal might be irresponsible but not towards his own health. That is why he wears this safety mask when using harmful permanent markers... Strobist Info: 580 EX II with 1/2 from the left into the ceiling (making use of the white wall to the right for bouncing)

The name of Atco is better known amongst keen gardeners who appreciate first-class lawnmowers. In 1939 the makers of Atco motor mowers (Charles H Pugh Ltd of Birmingham, now part of the Atco Qualcast Bosch Group) built around 500 of these miniature cars using 98cc Villiers two-stroke engines of the type normally found in their mowers.
At £35 each, Atco hoped to sell the cars to education authorities and conscientious parents as a training vehicle for children over the age of six, with the aim of improving standards of road safety and reducing the number of accidents.
Very much a real car scaled down, the Atco Junior incorporporated every feature necessary for training, including proper hand and foot brake controls, forward and reverse gears, and Ackermann steering. There was, however, no electrical equipment or suspension except for the pneumatic Dunlop tyres. Top speed was 10mph.
The standard colour scheme was lawnmower green, with red upholstery and black wings and wheels. Although the idea behind the Atco Junior was promising, the vehicle was not put back into production after the Second World War.
