Chicago Burlington and Quincy RR Denver Direct Owl Poster ca. 1884

Item Details

Description

This is a Chicago Burlington and Quincy Railroad Denver Direct color promotional poster. We could find no evidence of another like this, either sold or in a collection or online, with the exception of a different version in 1884. This one is likely from the same era. The CBQ used an owl in their early promotions. This poster is mounted to a thinner cardstock type paper with some additional artwork on the back. Some tears and frays on the edges. Deserves to be properly displayed and matted in a frame. A must have for a CBQ enthusiast!
