This significant piece of South African history is a bilingual, apartheid-era bus stop sign featuring embossed lettering in English and Afrikaans on a heavy-duty galvanized metal backing. Measuring 61cm x 32cm, the sign reads "BUS HALTE / NET NIE BLANKES" and "BUS STOP / NON WHITES ONLY," serving as a stark artifact of the "Petty Apartheid" laws that mandated racial segregation in public transit. The construction utilizes a weather-resistant zinc-coated reverse, while the front presents silver-toned raised text against a dark background. Currently in good vintage condition, the item displays authentic age-related wear, including minor paint loss and surface scratches that reflect its historical use and provenance.
