Misplaced Or Lost In My Room! 😢
Q Broadway Express replied to Q Broadway Express's topic in Off Topic Lounge
Yay! 😮 I have located my New York City 1974 Subway Guide with the MOMA circles! 😊 The map was in my Tucson Transit Users Guide between the last two pages of the booklet! I was worried but now I am relieved! -
Misplaced Or Lost In My Room! 😢
Q Broadway Express replied to Q Broadway Express's topic in Off Topic Lounge
I am now beginning to look through the dresser drawer that my 1974 New York City Subway Map And Guide was in. The map was under the 1968 Rapid Transit Guide and above my Sun Tran bus schedule. It was on the left side of the dresser drawer. I still have my 1964 Subway Map with the 1964 World's Fair station on it and my 1964 PATH Map. -

Yes, in 1955. -
On Tuesday June 24, 1939, the New York City Guide A Comprehensive Guide To The Five Boroughs Of The Metropolis - Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens and Richmond - Prepared by the Federal Writers' Project of the Works Progress Administration in New York City debuted in bookstores. This 708 page guide included a chapter with a map on the 1939 World's Fair and a large folded map in a back pocket. The map is two sided and is a map of Manhattan on one side and a subway and elevated map on the other side. The New York Times calls the New York City Guide one of the ten best books on New York City.

It Is Really Snowing In Tucson, Arizona
Q Broadway Express replied to Q Broadway Express's topic in Off Topic Lounge
We are enjoying a true spring here in Tucson. It has not reached 100° yet and today is May 19th. We have seen temperatures in the 70's, 80's and the 90's. -
Actually the Interborough Rapid Transit did not serve Lexington Avenue in 1904. The original line turned on 42nd Street and then served Broadway.

Your Transit Memorabilia
Q Broadway Express replied to Brighton Local's topic in New York City Subway
On eBay, I was the winning bidder for a 1974 New York Subway Guide. My winning bid was $12.75. My map is used but beautiful. The cover features the MOMA circles: (AA) (QB) There is a large tear along the bottom crease where the fold has worn loose but that is ok. I will be careful with opening my map. I was eleven years old when this map came out. -
Wow!
