The NYC Department of Records or NYC Municipal Archives offers a trove of photographs of New York scenes.
The link below is to an 1922 photo of a Concourse bus going to The Hub. The bus is a double-decker with solid tires. I wonder whether the seats had cushions.

    The link below shows a northbound Concourse Bus from 110th St & 5th Ave. to Mosholu Pkwy in 1922. A slider below the center of the photo allows a good close-up view.
  • Northbound in 1922

    That page has three more photos, one clearly displaying a Dept. of Plant and Structures sign over the door to the driver's cabin.

    When one enters the word "bus" in the search engine for the NYCMA site, you get many more photos from other boroughs.
