This is a photo of an old 1960's (possibly earlier) era Chicago Transit Authority Bus Stop Sign. Still in day to day use, but on borrowed time in this August 1990 Photograph. We are on 111th Street east of the Pulaski Bus terminal , on Chicago's Southwest side in the Mount Greenwood Neighborhood.
Todays CTA Bus Stop Signs are Blue and White with a newer, much more modern Logo.

Some of the oldest CTA streetcars had woooden bodies. At the CTA shops located at 111th and Vincinnes the trucks etc were stripped and they were stacked up and burned. I can remember meeting my Dad there several times around 1950-52 in the evening and seeing the fires.
