A bus full of children as signals flash for an approaching train. The 1959 illustration was for the Standard Pressed Steel Company, founded in 1903 by Howard T. Hallowell and Harald F. Gade, a Norwegian engineer. Headquartered today in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania, and known as SPS Technologies, Inc., it is a leading international company producing both stock and specialty fasteners and fastening systems. For airplanes, helicopters, and satellites, SPS designs and manufactures instrument and distribution panels, armament controls, turbine lockplates, and other items. They manufacture components for the automotive, aerospace, industrial sectors, and according to the illustration, oversized school buses stopped way too close to the tracks.
