I'm going to say Khao Sarn Road, which I know is wrong, but it's an attempt to keep this thread going as I like the idea.

Good luck, sorensen

Austin 1100's, VW Beatles, Ford Consuls - No aircon - all with their windows wound down.

Don't know Bkk well enough to say where it is exactly though it looks vaguely familiar !

Good photo!

Just guessing by the the size of the roundabout (bigger than Victory Monument) i'd say it's the Democracy Monument Circle !

Do i win a prize ?

Edit : Great shot !

I'm going to guess it's where Rama 1 and Phaya Thai Road now cross. Where MBK, and Siam/National Stadium BTS stations now are.

Looking through the barbed wire from the inside of Bangkwang prison? :)

BINGO, we got a winner. First picture is from 1970 and in 1973 building of Siam Center Started.

Democracy Monument was built in 1939, Victory Monument in 1941, I'd say this photo's from the 50's/60's.

Same intersection, just from a different year and direction......

dam_n, i knew i should have Wikied before shooting off my big mouth !

Good thread and great photo. Don't know where it was taken but I am sure I saw that bus on Sukhumvit today. :)

This one is easy then.....

thedivezone.....I'll leave this one to you......take it away :)

Come on then Sorensen, chuck us another (as the last one of Democracy Monument was too easy (plus it had where it was written on the top of the photo :) ).

anyone know where is a good shop to get reprint from black and white old bangkok photo ?

sorensen, that is now !

OK, so we take it up another notch. I want to know what is on this location today. Knock yourself out guessing.......I don't have the correct answer. It is like when Marty goes back in time in "Back to The Future" and find his old neighbourhood as an empty plot of land.

Can you expand a bit, what is the name of the roundabout and the general area?

i think i am wrong, to me i can see the road and buildings, could be near the old siam

Surely this one must be the roundabout where Victory Monument was later built.

Nope, but since the Catman is back, we will take an early picture of The Victory Monument.

Not sure where those guys are, but willing to wager they are still on break
