Down memory lane on Argyll buses of old
Retired doctor John Sinclair has added to his collection of bus books, with this latest selection of colour photographs covering the islands of Arran, Bute and Cumbrae, the old county of Argyll, and a few places on the fringes of these areas.
John is a lifelong bus enthusiast who had the foresight and interest to photograph bus operators large and small in the late 1950s, 1960s and later.
As a student, John created a technique of low-cost travel and accommodation which would allow him to travel to different areas and photograph the local buses operating in their habitat.
In July 1965, the soon-to-be junior doctor travelled from his home in Edinburgh to Argyll and the Clyde Coast.
The majority of the photos in this book date from that trip, with a few others from subsequent decades.
From Campbeltown to Tarbert, Ardrishaig and Lochgilphead to Oban, this book also takes in the island of Arran, including stops in Brodick and Whiting Bay.
