These fixtures consist of black buttons, and the hall stations have a very old style to them. In the 1930s, the car station buttons were made to protrude less, and have more rounded edges.

1980s to mid 1990s
After Evans was bought out by Otis, they used Dewhurst fixtures. They use the US81 square buttons without illuminating halo, and these buttons were arranged vertically on a thin car operating panel. On some elevators, there is a small LED dot-matrix floor indicator above the buttons.
