I’ve had Dan’s “Crossroads of Commerce” book since shortly after it was released and still enjoy looking through it periodically. There are railroad books I consider timeless, including those authored by the late Don Ball; and Dan’s book on Grif Teller and the PRR calendar artwork is certainly in that same league. It’s a “must have” for any fan of the late, great PRR and especially for folks with an interest in the PRR calendar art.
I’ll note that Dan and I are both originally from Lewistown, PA and in the dedication he thanks his mother and father for introducing him to the PRR at the Lewistown station in 1950’s. I also credit my interest in railroads and the PRR in particular to my dad taking me to the Lewistown station to watch trains in that same era.
