As readers of this website know a lot of my research comes from old city directories from the metropolitan cities that had a concentration of trucking operations. This advertisement appeared in a 1962 Charlotte, North Carolina directory. Charlotte, for those who might not know, was the home base for many large and small trucking companies. Names of the well known carriers that immediately come to mind are Akers Motor Lines, Central Motor Lines, Johnson Motor Lines, Thurston Motor Lines and Bruce Johnson Trucking Company.

This advertisement gives my readers a glimpse of where Bruce Johnson operated to. Enjoy!
