HMS Victory and Ford Anglia 1962 - a photo on Flickriver

HMS Victory and Ford Anglia 1962

            HMS Victory pictured more than 55 years ago in June 1962. I can blame my father for the composition here since I am in the picture. As I recall it was impossible to get a full shot of the ship and I remember my father backed to a wall to get this much in camera. Still, it would have been better to have angled the camera up just a tad.

The vehicle in front of the ship is, I believe, a Ford Anglia probably dating to around 1956.

Taken in: United Kingdom / England / Portsmouth / Buckland (show map)
