 |

Hello, I am doing research on New York Bus Service and part of that research involves their advertising. In the 60s -80s, they did huge wall painted advertisments on the northwest facing wall at 330 Bruckner Blvd (around e 141st / Southern Blvd across from where the old Lincoln Hospital used to be). I am trying to gather photographs of these advertisements and would be happy to work out a deal if you have any. Also, any information on New York Bus Service in this building would also help. Thanks in advance.

alanfritz,
Firstly, allow me to welcome you to BusTalk and say that we look forward to your valued input and contributions.
New York Bus Service did go heavily into billboard advertising as can be seen in your submissions.
A somewhat different NYBS ad appears on the same six story building as depicted in your lower photo and can be found on page 17 of the October, 1981 issue of Motor Coach Age devoted entirely to the company and written by my good friend Don Weiss (MHSRIP).
If you don't happen to have the MCA issue referred to, check eBay where back issues usually show up.
Regards,
Mr. 'L'
