About This Item
N.p. [Chicago]: Chicago & North-Western Railway, 1882. Broadside. 14½" X 9". Very good. Bit of sporadic soiling, but overall remarkably clean and attractive -- given it's printed on a thin tissue paper, a rare survivor. Timetable "No. 4," which "Takes Effect Sunday, May 7th, 1882, at 12 o'clock Noon" and is meant "For the Government and Information of Employes only," containing two columns (headed "Trains Going West" and "Trains Going East") showing all stops for both freight and passenger trains between Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin. Signed in large type at the bottom by J.D. Layng as General Superintendent, C.A. Swineford as Superintendent and Wm. F. Fitch as Assistant Superintendent. Rare to find in ANY condition, given its inherent fragility, much less this attractive condition. Newly and archivally framed under UV-filtering glass with a single archival cream matte and 3/4" thick dark wood and antiqued gold frame (overall dimensions 18" X 12½") -- giving it a superb period feel.
