Hand paddles stowed for flag-persons to proceed the movement in front of vehicular traffic, eh?

Har, har! This isn't my posting, but I've had the same issues. Somehow TO's technology can't seem to handle a vertically-composed digital photo as vertical. But if you scan a vertical slide, it does just fine. Go figure.

I ask because here in Minneapolis the big yellow streetcars were painted on the back in black letters

STOP
10 ft back

That was, of course, before the 1954 abandonment, when US stop signs were also black on yellow.
