    Description

    Vintage Magazine Advertisement
    General Motors Diesel Locomotive
    St Louis Southwestern Railroad
    1945
    NOTE:

    NOTE
    :  Be sure to look at both pictures to see the entire ad.
    This is an original ad from a 1945 magazine, not a reproduction or copy.  In excellent clean condition; measures approx 6-3/4 x 10.  The first picture is a close-up for detail, the second is the full ad.  The red border is not part of the ad.  This would look great matted and framed, and would make a very unique gift for anyone who collects railroadiana.
    This ad is titled "Changing the Measure of Railroading".  Pictured is a GM diesel locomotive made for St Louis Southwestern RR, plus a Currier and Ives-type picture in the background of the original 1886 train for comparison. You can just make out the letters "St L SW" on the side of the GM train.  Use the Zoom and Enlarge features to see detail.
    My ads are:
    from a smoke-free home
    neatly trimmed along the stapled edge
    dated in pencil, usually at the lower edge
    shipped in plastic bag, cardboard layers, and waterproof outer packaging for safe arrival.
    offered with a combined shipping discount if you make multiple purchases (please inquire first).
    I have many other ads listed on ebay, including other railroad ads - check my listings.  These make very original gifts, and I can combine items to save you some of the additional shipping.
    Additional single ads are only 50c each for extra shipping/handling, even less for quantity purchases.
    If you have any questions about this item, please feel free to ask!
