Description: Shows an extremely busy street scene in Dunedin. A man wearing a tam-o-shanter tells his companion that he used to get a Shiel Hill bus at this corner. He is standing beside a signpost with names like 'East 72nd Street, Iron Av., and 'Little Wall Street' on it - all names with an American flavour. Passing by are huge 'Nevis Oil' tankers and a jeep full of Americans with 'U.S. Forces Deep Freeze' on their number plate careen round the corner grinning at a pretty young woman. Refers to American influence in the city. Quantity: 1 newspaper clipping. Physical Description: Newspaper clipping, 130 x 160 mm
