This print captures a significant moment in Glasgow's history. Taken on the 11th of March, 1957, it showcases a neon sign adorning the mast of a cruise ship moored in Glasgow harbor. The sign urges people to visit the city's hospitals for an X-ray, emphasizing its vital role in combating the rampant tuberculosis epidemic that plagued the city at that time. Health officials had launched a campaign to raise awareness about this deadly disease and encourage attendance at X-ray sessions. This image symbolizes their efforts to tackle tuberculosis head-on by utilizing transportation as a means to spread their message effectively. The portrait-style photograph highlights a male figure standing with his back turned towards us, gazing out onto the vessel filled with pleasure boats.
