hey, jon.
would love to get some of those UP and Milw posters. any place to buy them?
Forrest:
Many of the images Jon is posting are actually enlargements of pamphlets, brochures and timetables so they're not posters per se. I have a lot of this material in my own collection so I've been recognizing the images as he posts them. Keep checking the auction site and you'll see these items come up from time to time.

While true that several images are lifted from brochures and time tables, much was used in calendar art, print ads, and indeed posters. Quite often an image would share duties across a broad spectrum. Individual mages used in composite print work would also most likely available as a post card.
Understood. As a long time participant in the memorabilia segment of the hobby, I'm well aware certain images were used in multiple ways such as the PRR's use of Grif Teller works on timetables and calendars to name just a few. I just wanted to caution Forrest before he begins looking for items which may or may not exist.
