Ed:   Boris wrote and Asked the very same thing I was thinking  --  car 
delivered in June  --  Why  All  The  Heavy  Coats~?~!~?     Car Looks 
Very New Yet  --  Too New for October Nov of 1936.

Only answers I could get is that it was much later in the year for some 
reason except that it Does Say Demon-Strator and if it was a special 
roll sign it would have been removed by late 1936, but still 
available.     Think you checked once and found that the car arrived in 
May  --  very possible for cold snap in May, unusual, but not 
unknown.       Looks Like PRCo employees as opposed to general public 
and looks like E.Pgh

The foldout in back of PCC Fought Back indicates that 100 was ordered 
1936.04.06 and Tens were ordered 1936.07.18 while 100 was still 
Demo.     Almost a year to the day after 100 was ordered, the 11's were 
ordered~!~!~!
