Yale Express System, Inc. entered the public‐warehouse business in New York in 1964. A new terminal building in midtown Manhattan had 160,000 square feet of space and the new building added more than $1 million to the trucking company's annual gross revenues, but the company went out of business in 1973, possibly from the OPEC oil scam

Well Yale does make forklifts and other heavy material handling equipment for loading trucks,so it makes as much sense as lots of advertising.Which is often very little!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see anything associating this with the yale forklifts... for all this shows, it could be for yale padlocks, university, paracord, doorhandles, etc.
DeleteIt's a billboard with and old truck... that's not much to go on.
What's a Pzak?
This is a billboard for the long gone Yale Express System that went out business in 1973. The building itself was abandoned for many years and new owners took down the billboard in 2003.
