Last week I went to the Menards Toy Train Show in Eau Claire Wi (about 1 1/2 hour drive) with a group of train buddies. There was an amazing amount of tinplate at the show, and a nice representation of eras, gauges and manufacturers. In my opinion there were good buys and fair prices.
My offering this week is an item that I picked up at the show.
Lithographed Ives #114 Station - Ticket Office.
I am not sure what time frame this comes from. My Ives resources are not very deep, and the Ives Train Society site does not show this particular variation. None of their examples have an REA sign. Any ideas?
More next week......
Have a Great Tinplate Weekend
