New Yorkers have always had a special relationship with the subway system, which has shuttled hundreds of millions to work, home, ballgames and various other destinations throughout four of the five boroughs for over a century. This is one of the best rolling subway signs we have ever come across and it is fully functional, with the following designations printed on rolling linen background: Coney Island, Brighton Beach, Kings Highway, B'klyn-Church Av., Smith-9th St., Aqueduct Race Track, Rockaway Park, Far R'K'Way-Mott Av., Fulton-Lefferts Blvd, Fulton-Euclid Av., Hudson Terminal, Sixth Av.-34th St., Houston-Lafayette St., Houston-2nd Ave, Bay Parkway, Whitehall St., Canal Street and No Passengers. Measures 27x6" and is in excellent working condition.
