Baseball Game Advertisement on Streetcar


A black and white photo of a single truck, one man, Birney streetcar with an advertisement put up on its side for a Tampa City League baseball game at Plant Field in Tampa. These cars were used on lighter routes or as the photo shows for advertising. They were purchased to save money as they didn't require a conductor and a motorman, thus the 'One Man' moniker.
