Reply to "Pinup Train Advertising - Metal Signs"

My Dad was a "car knocker" for the Reading Lines from the 40's thru 1980. I visited his shops many times as a kid and remember a lot of "pin up" girl posters on the walls. But none of them involved anything to do with railroading.  

You can do an internet search and find a lot of old photographs with pretty girls posing with new locomotives and passenger equipment. I would hesitate to use the words "pin up" with these photos however.

That being said....I have quite a few of the pretty girl and trains tin metal signs displayed in my train room. I like them and do not find them offensive at all. If guests do, I politely show them the way out.
