Chicago: Union Pacific Railroad, c. 1940. Pamphlet. Tawny pink textured illustrated paper. Near fine. 17 x 10 cm. closed, 17 x 29 cm. opened. City of Denver railroad car commissioned American Artist Walt Kuhn to design two cars to resemble a historic frontier shack/bar for the daily trains between Chicago and Denver. One of the cars was dedicated to General Grant, with his portrait in a prominent location, and the other was dedicated to Buffalo Bill. Kuhn lined the walls and ceilings with unfinished wood and decorated each car with a variety of genuine antiques dating from 1865 to 1890, including photos, newspaper stories, and hardware such as a rifle issued to Union Pacific construction crews in the late 1860s. The pamphlet is printed on paper reminiscent of the late 1800's with black and white photos of various views of the railroad car. One small 1 cm. stain on the rear of the pamphlet, otherwise pristine.
