Colorful pictorial broadside advertising the "Burlington Route" CB&Q R. R in very good condition. This broadside was printed by Rand, McNally & Co of Chicago in 1883. It measures 11" wide by 32 1/2" tall. The top portion of the broadside advertises the rail road, underneath that is a large illustration of an owl and a crescent moon, and below that a time table for the rail roads mentioned. Surrounding the text and time table is a decorative yellow and black border. Broadside is matted and shrink wrapped, and has not been examined out of shrink wrap. Broadside is in very good condition: bottom left corner has light creases at edge, not affecting content; the top and bottom of the left edge has light rubbing and soiling, affecting the decorative border; a very light crease, with no soiling, is located 2" above the time table and spans the width of the broadside. No other wear or soiling present on recto. The "Burlington Route," officially named the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad (CB&Q R. R. ) operated from 1849 to 1970. The CB&Q R. R completed the line to Denver in 1882, after purchasing the Nebraska Burlington & Missouri River R. R a few years earlier. This was the first direct rail line from Chicago to Denver. Broadside reads the following: "Up in the mountains of Colorado- down on the Atlantic Coast and out on the Pacific Slope, we hear the people all talking about the - new line just opened up, composed of the grand - "Burlington Route" CB&Q R. R. - between Chicago or Peoria or St. Louis and Denver - And the Denver & Rio Grande R. R. - Scenic line of America between - Denver and Ogden - And the old popular Central Pacific R. R. , between - Ogden and San Francisco - The palace trains of this new through line will hereafter leave and arrive as per the following time table." Below the time table are names of traveling and passenger agents located throughout the country. Due to scanner bed size image is cropped. Please call for more images.
