The Festival Pleasure Gardens formed part of London’s post-war entertainment and leisure developments and became a popular destination for visitors. The inclusion of the Guinness Festival Clock is particularly useful to collectors, as it was one of the more distinctive attractions within the gardens.
Multi-view cards such as this provide a broader record of the site than single-view postcards, showing both the landscaped areas and amusement attractions that visitors would have experienced.
