Detroit Bus Scroll Throw Pillow
$ 36.00
Detroit Bus Scroll Throw Pillow. Our transit destination illustrations are painstakingly adapted from an early 1980's bus destination scrolling sign. We have purchased original, 40 foot long vintage bus rolls, photographed, joined and made large-format transparencies and silkscreens for each route name. We have faithfully reconstructed these early pieces of Detroit transit history from tattered originals.

Long before the LED signs you see on modern trains and buses, these hand-printed linen and vellum signs were installed on a roll and cranked manually by the bus operator to change destination names.
Perfect for display & daily use. Makes an astonishingly fun and unique hostess gift for those who love old typography or are passionate about public transit. New from Well Done Goods. Hand screen-printed in the USA in our Detroit Michigan studio.
