Located on a building on Constitucion Street, this sign reads:

"POR ESTA PUERTA SALIERON
LAS "PULMONIAS"

POR VEZ PRIMERA, A PRESTAR SERVICO PUBLICO
EL 20 DE DICIEMBRE DE 1965. EN
ESTE EDIFICIO FUNCIONO, DURANTE DIEZ ANOS
EL TALLER DONDE LAS IDEO
DON MIGUEL RAMIREZ
MAZATLAN, SIN. A 20 DICIEMBRE DE 2000"

which I can best translate (with the exception of the word "ideo") as:

"THROUGH THIS DOOR CAME
THE "PULMONIAS"

FOR THE FIRST TIME, TO PROVIDE PUBLIC SERVICE
DECEMBER 20TH 1965. IN
THIS building functioned for ten years
WORKSHOP of
