Greetings!
*PRCo* used an emblem of those letters intertangled with wings coming
off the left side. The emblem was located on the right side of the car, below
the windows, and immediately behind the center doors. That emblem does not seem
to appear on the PCC interurbans while they were operating to Washington and
Charleroi but does appear later. It is not on 1714 sitting beneath the Drake
trestle on 1954.02.07.
Therefore, the use of this emblem came about sometime in the mid 50's.
Does any one know the date? Also, I assume this emblem arose after the
bankruptcy / receivership proceedings of the very late 40's early 50s as the new
corporate identity.
