Elmhurst Avenue in Queens. This classification is San Serif. This station was built on the IND Queens Boulevard Line as a local station. This signage was built along a section of the line with the same classification typeface when construction happened because it was part of the IND system before all three system were unified becoming the MTA today (which was the IRT, BMT, and IND). It was built in 1936. The historic art along with the typeface that is still used today because they never redesign it to a modern typeface. So people could understand that this station was almost a century year old. This also resembles the fact that this station is an IND station which most of the IND stations uses the same San Serif classification design. The BMT and IRT have different classifications.
