Picture history of Mother City - "Cape Town down the years", the Cape Times photographic exhibition, is to be officially opened by the Mayor of Cape Town, Mr John Tyers, at the Shell Gallery in Greenmarket Square on Wednesday, April 6. The exhibition, which consists of about 160 photographs, will remain open from April 7 to 29 as part of the Cape Town Festival. The gallery will be closed on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. The picture above was taken about 80 years ago in Adderley Street, when the first single-deck trams were introduced in the City. (Published 1 April, 1977)
