An 'escaped monkey' is chased down the pavement of King Street, Aberdeen by its 'keepers'. This was part of a publicity stunt to raise awareness of the Aberdeen Student Charities Campaign's latest fund-raising efforts. They are passing 90 King Street, which at the time (1977) was a Fruiterers, Confectioners and Florists.
