Description
George Gwynn, driver of one of the three double-deck buses visiting Fort Worth, brings a bit of London to the transplanted Rankin family, natives of England. Welcoming the bus crews at the Worth Hotel were Laurie Priesack, left, British vice consul, Gwynn, and the Rankins. Left to right, they are Mrs. Vera Rankin-Watson, her mother, Mrs. M. Rankin, and the R. J. Rankin Jrs., whose small son, Mark Rankin, had never before seen a London Bus.
