LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY
This set of front mylar rollsigns was designed for one of TARC's former 1981 built Crown Ikarus articulated buses (series number 400-414). The route/curb-side sign (left) is dated January 7, 1981 and  has 36 exposures. The destination/street-side sign (right) is dated January 6, 1981 and has 90 exposures. Given their print dates, it is likely these igns were the only ones to occupy the bus they were from. Their respective sign tags are shown below.
