Previously we’ve seen Manchester fashion students strutting along the university and college catwalks, this time we take a look at the Manchester and Salford students’ Rag day parade that was staged in 1974.

Here we have the students of seventy four parading through the streets of the city accompanied by a very stern looking policeman. However, two of his colleagues, a monkey masked driver and a couple of Monty Python fans dressed as Gumbys add some fun to the parade.
