Great Video of Old Karachi. Thanks for sharing. Some people in the comments indicate that this is Not Karachi, they think its maybe Bombay due to Hindi signs, and Double decker buses. Back in those days, Karachi was part of India anyway, and most signs were either in English, Urdu and Hindi. Even the early Pakistani Currency notes had Hindi written on it and were issued by State Bank of India, later on during 1950s, the State Bank of Pakistan started printing its own currency.
