Traffic Signals

broken down into general categories

Design Characteristics

That's a Peterco. Made in Brazil. They were used in the late 1980's. Their 8" signal is a very poorly cast copy of a Crouse-Hinds Type R. They also made peds that look like the Winko-Matic models, but are marked "Peterco" on the back. The casting on all of these was of poor quality, and the vehicular heads only had two screws to hold in each lens, even though they had the normal holes for four. -Jesse
