Item Details

Description

This historic sign has Mother of Pearl inlays along the entire locomotive and shows incredible detail. The reverse paint is strong and vibrant. The mountain in the background is Pike's Peak. This sign would have hung in an executive office and was made by the Western Sandblasting Co. in Chicago. There are only a few of these signs still in existence today. This is a fabulous example that will be hard to improve on. (Excellent). 89" x 26".
