(CIVIL RIGHTS.) FOR COLORED. FOR WHITES. Two-sided Dallas Street Car sign, 9-1/2 x 4 inches, with a long 'L-shaped' piece of metal along the top. Reddish wood, with painted cream-white lettering; metal bar at the top for placement at different locations inside the streetcar. [Texas, circa 1945-1956]
This sign matches the colors of the old Dallas streetcars, red with cream trim. This is a moveable sign, with a metal piece which the conductor could place almost anywhere in the streetcar, depending on the number of whites or blacks on board. But no matter the number, the black section was always to the rear.
