Medical Society Dance

A photograph showing couples in evening wear, on a busy dance floor, at the Aberdeen University Medical Society dance in the Students' Union buildings on the Gallowgate.

This image is from the Bon-Accord and Northern Pictorial newspaper of 27th November 1941, page 1.

An accompanying caption draws attention to the decorations, which appear to show alternating dancing skeletons and baby-delivering stocks.

A small section of the Pageant of Life murals created by Robert Sivell and his students can be seen on the right.
