Bus station and buses in ELO
Bus Station, East Fifth Street, 1940s
An interesting picture. Past and the future as represented by the trolley, soon to be the past in ELO and the bus coming up behind it which will be the future in ELO for approx 30 years. BTW the scene is the East End.
This picture taken along East 5th Street is probably the late 40s. If you look behind the bus you will see that the modern multiple story J.C.Penny Building hadn't been built yet. What is present in the picture in the place where that building would be shortly after this picture is a one story building.
The Diamond, trolley tracks still present so probably late 30s very early 40s.
This picture made between 1939 - 1942.
I enjoy your website very much. While browsing through "We had a bus station" I remembered a picture I took in the early 1970's of the last two East Liverpool motorcoaches taken out of service and replaced by old schoolbuses. These two buses to me represent an end of an era. I attached the picture and you may use it in this article if you wish.. . . Mel Watson

Legally speaking framing is still in a murky area of the law though there have been court cases in which framing has been seen as violation of copyright law. Many cases that were taken to court ended up settling out-of-court with the one doing the framing agreeing to cease framing and to just use a regular link to the other site.
