Bus Advertising Job Placed With Company
City bus advertising has been transferred from the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce to a national advertising firm. Philbrin and Coine has been named by the City Commission to handle the sale of advertising on the inside and rear of the municipally-owned busses. Outside side boards won't be used.
