Ken Roe commented about ABC Upton Park on Dec 4, 2008 at 7:27 am

Here is a rare colour promotional photograph from the Hathern Station Brick & Terra Cotta Company Ltd. It is used by kind permission of Clive Greathurst.

It is the same as the b&w photograph that I posted above on April 30, 2006. I believe the colours are pretty well true to life, as the still existing exterior of the Carlton (ABC) Islington is similar. Both buildings share the same architect and same Hathernware terra cotta tiles manufacturer.
