London 1950.

A car park attendant for National Car Parks stands in the doorway of his wooden kiosk in London, 1950. He wears a double-breasted overcoat and a peaked cap embroidered with the word "Driver". A company notice tacked to the structure announces a price increase due to "Increasing Costs," while a nearby sign displays the fees in pre-decimal currency: 1/6 for a car. In the background, a banner advertises a film directed by Jacques Tourneur.
