Description: | Destination blinds were used on trams, buses and trolleybuses to indicate the route and destination. This trolleybus blind and was allocated to Fulwell depot in west London.
The early blinds from the 1930s were silk-screen printed onto a glazed cotton cloth and were made at Charlton Works. Production was moved to Aldenham Works in 1952 and blinds like this one were made of printed paper with a cotton backing. The length of the blinds varied depending on the number of destinations and routes. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport | Temporal: | 1961 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
