Again, I'm not sure if the attachment will get through, but I just found
a copy of a PPG company magazine (June, 1949) that I've had for years.
It's a tabloid-size magazine, and this issue contains a 4-page feature
article on "Glass in the Modern Trolley Car." The article is about the
use of new types of glass (e.g., sealed windows) and designs (e.g.,angled
windshields) in PCC cars. The article is illustrated with many photos of
cars under construction, and most of them are PRC cars. The attached
article, which is just part of one page, shows the interior of 1734.
Other photos with identifiable numbers are 1709 and 1716.
This magazine is a most unexpected source of trolley photos.
