Ladies and Gentlemen, up for your consideration on the auction block this evening is a really nice, HIGHLY collectible vintage railroad photograph! This is a real vintage photograph, not a cheap recent print. I am personally estimating the date of this photo to the late 1930s – the early 1940s based on the following: the type of paper used, under microscope the fibers appear to be within that era, the paper weight is also consistent with the time period, the locomotive is consistent as well. There is also a significant amount of yellowing on the verso which only happens after many decades. This photograph is one of a decent sized acquisition recently made. If the response in traffic and bids are satisfactory on these items, you will be seeing more of them over the coming weeks. If not, they will be added to my personal archive. Please be sure to read the pertinent information, if recorded on the scan of the verso. Unlike most sellers, I have taken very high resolution scans to reveal all imperfections in minute detail. Remember, most of the imperfections that you can see under high magnification will not be as noticeable or maybe even visible at all to the naked eye.
Please look thoroughly at the scans to satisfy yourself as to the condition of this item.  Bidding starts low on this one.
