Good question.  I think they came from Rails Unlimited also. I recall that they were meant to be for the vinegar car and pickle all on one sheet, copies of the OMI decals as far as I can tell except for the blue end lettering. I know I have a Champ set someplace but cannot locate it at the moment.

I have real photos of car 73 and 80. I wonder if there are any other photos out there of other car numbers.

The Westerfield pickle cars were an earlier style of car that this one though.

 

Thought that Anson did those decals for Rails Unlimited?

Leider's book has photos of other cars in it; the other series of cars have slightly different lettering.  Just what series cars do these models really represent? How many panels are there on the sides? I wonder if the decals you have are really for a slightly later series of coffin pickle cars and not for the 70-80 cars?

Well, if Mr Anson did the these decals, they are somewhat in error.

I'm not sure that they are in error for the later series of cars - just maybe not right for the 70-80 cars
