Harlem Valley Transportation Association Letterhead

1960_hvtae1.jpg
The HVTA was a nonprofit citizens group of approximately 500 individuals, led by activist Lettie Gay Carson of Mount Riga and later Millerton. The group is largely remembered for fighting to retain both passenger and freight service along the upper Harlem Division in the 1960s and 1970s.

The letterhead was used on their printed documents and surveys sent to train riders.
