The queues for tickets...
This week’s photo shows Alistair Colquhoun who brought along the souvenir programme issued for the Scottish premiere of Disney’s ‘Greyfriars Bobby’ for the opening of the ‘Colour Sergeant Scott & Greyfriars Bobby’ exhibition presently running at Linlithgow Library. In the 1960’s Alistair’s father Alexander Colquhoun was sales manager for the Walt Disney Company in Scotland. Prior to the premiere Mr Colquhoun brought the star of the film home with him. During the terrier’s four day stay, Alistair took the dog for walks in the Pentlands. The photograph of Alistair with the souvenir programme is reproduced by permission of the Linlithgow Gazette. |
The queues for tickets for the Castle stretched all the way down the fortress’s esplanade during the Easter weekend while Greyfriars Bobby’s drinking fountain was surrounded by visitors from every part of the planet taking photographs of the world famous dog.
