Here is a view of Princes Street., looking from the Foot of the Mound
towards the Scott Monument.
What is the occasion? The photograph may have been taken on
Sunday 22 October 1922, the day that electric tramcars first operated
along Princes Street.
There are lots of interesting elements in this picture. The
Edinburgh tramcar is in the centre of the picture, surrounded by a crowd,
all wearing hats or caps. There is a dog seated in the background
and an old car and cycle in the background.
