<div dir="ltr">I checked two other copies of this photo which I have. One is on a calendar from 1967, the other from the Internet. All three photos look the same to me. The two ladies looking in a storefront to the left (facing) the Roosevelt Hotel entrance are in the same positions in all three photos, the auto is in the same position to the rear of the trolley but in the right lane, and the light trails on the 7th Street Bridge are the same length and position. The only difference is that the other two photos have had the foreground cropped to remove the light trails which appear to be on the surface of Penn Avenue in this photo. Also, the trolley seems to be a regular service car. There are no people hanging around on the curbs like always happens on a fan trip. Not much going on inside the trolley either. The ghost-like image of someone either heading toward or away from the taxi parked in front of the hotel is also on all three photos. <br>

A good selection of PRCo, PAT, and Johnstown Traction pics. Many of them I<br>
had never seen.<br>
<br>
Interesting is the slide on the second page, second row from top of page,<br>
third slide from left side of page. I see this fellow is also taking credit<br>
for this photo. This now makes at least three individuals who claim<br>
copyright to this photo.<br>
