Vintage black and white silver gelatin print depicting a line of stopped RATP buses, including a Saviem SC10, an iconic model of the Parisian network in the 1970s. The lead bus, shown in close-up, displays an advertisement for Diane Dufresne, an iconic singer of the same era, as well as a destination sign reading "HB". Further along, another bus on line 175 is visible, heading towards Porte de Saint-Cloud. The urban setting suggests a suburban terminal or transport hub: concrete sidewalks, canopies, and double-headed lampposts. The overall atmosphere perfectly evokes the daily life of Parisian public transport in the 1970s. The unsigned print is presented with a black mat in a discreet glass frame, in vintage condition, without any major flaws. Overall dimensions with frame: 52 X 42 cm. Visible image dimensions: 40 X 25 cm. Printed in the 1970s. Location: Île-de-France region, exact location unknown. Photographer: unsigned. Condition: vintage condition.
