Chessie – C&O’s Symbol of “Pur-r-r-fect Transportation”
This year we feature great advertisements from Chessie’s first decades of life when she became “America’s Sleep-heart” for passenger service. But she soon came to represent the whole railway and all its service, so over time she symbolized C&O’s attention to the shipper as well as the passenger. Wonderful 1930s-40s nostalgic artwork! 12x9 size in full color.
