[PRCo] Re: PRC PCCs - Buhl Planetarium

[Bob Rathke]

Thanks for the interesting photos, Matt.  I have a couple of color post
cards sold in Pittsburgh in the late 1950's - they show PCC's on West. Ohio
St. in front of the Planetarium, very similar to the 1938 camera views.  The
1938 and 1950's photos were probably taken from the Boggs & Buhl Department
Store building.
