> PHOTO POSTCARD OF A HORSE DRAWN TROLLEY LOCATED IN PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA.  INK INSCRIPTION ON REVERSE READS "TAKEN MAY 1ST, 1912 SARAH STREET PITTSBURGH E. S. HILL".  I WONDER IF SARAH STREET WAS ON THE EAST SIDE HILL?  MAYBE THIS WAS ON THE NORTH SIDE.  THE SIDE OF THE TROLLEY HAS P. R. CO.  I THINK THIS IS THE NICEST TROLLEY, OR INTERURBAN, POSTCARD I HAVE EVER OWNED.  HAS CYKO STAMPBOX.  NO PROBLEMS PLEASE LOOK AT SCAN TO JUDGE CONDITION.  PLEASE CHECK OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE GOODIES.
