Cashing in the empties and the Corpy buses - Glasgow in the 70s

Cashing in the Empties. Malcolm R Hill. Pic: Glasgow Museums CHILDREN at the window of an empty tenement; cashing in the empties on Acadia Street; shop assistants in a grain store, smiling for the camera… This is Glasgow in the 1970s, a time when ordinary Glaswegians went about their daily life as their city changed around them. These fantastic photographs are the work of Partick Camera Club’s 1970s Photographic Surveys, held now in Glasgow Museums’ collection. They were turned into a book in 2011, called 1970s Glasgow: Through the Lens, a fascinating snapshot of the city at a time when it was rapidly evolving.
