The poster is in near mint condition with no noticeable defects and should display wonderfully once framed.
Step aboard one of the most celebrated trains in American railroad history. This richly illustrated poster places you right inside the glass-topped Vista-Dome observation car of the California Zephyr, surrounded by well-dressed passengers marveling at towering canyon walls, rushing whitewater, and snow-capped peaks. Through the panoramic curved windows, the gleaming silver streamliner snakes ahead through the wilderness; a view that made the Zephyr famous.
Operated jointly by Western Pacific, Denver & Rio Grande Western, and Burlington Route, the California Zephyr ran the full San Francisco-to-Chicago route through Feather River Canyon and the Colorado Rockies, widely considered the most scenic rail journey in North America.
