Bus Baggage: 1943
September 1943. "Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Bringing baggage from a bus." Photo by Esther Bubley for the Office of War Information. View full size.
Deja vu...
Recently, flying home non-stop from Boston to San Francisco...
It felt exactly like we remember being treated as a Bus Passenger in the 1960's!
It's very film noirish...
in a dark, sort of gloomy way. A bus station in a dark, gritty downtown terminal.
You can almost smell it.
Not in Columbus
The bus may be Columbus bound but that big hotel in the background is the old Fort Pitt Hotel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
[Thankyou! - Dave]
Fort Hayes Hotel
Looking at the sign on the building behind, that may be the Fort Hayes Hotel which is long gone.
