1952 Pennsylvania Railroad Calendar Original -- "The Horseshoe Curve"  (RI)
This is an original 1952 PRR wall calendar featuring a reproduction of a Grif Teller painting titled "The Horseshoe Curve" and measuring approx. 29" x 28 5/8" and in excellent overall condition scoring a 9+ on a scale of 1 - 10. This calendar has survived 55+ years thus far and is still in great condition! The scene is a bird's eye view of the famous Horseshoe Curve, just west of Altoona, PA. Even after a century and a half of service, this engineering marvel still carries the Pennsylvania's main line navigating the Allegheny Mountains linking Philadelphia to Pittsburgh and the Ohio Valley. This particular calendar has a complete, original and well preserved calendar pad and the original greeting letter, which is still attached. The artwork print area is in excellent condition with no perceptible blemishes in the artwork image. The tuscan red border has only a minor vertical crease above the center of the artwork image. The gold border has only very minor, barely perceptible edge creasing in the margins. All of the imperfections are considered minor and will be barely perceptible, especially after professional framing and hanging over your mantle or on a wall in your den or train room. This particular calendar is in high demand and very hard to find in better condition!
NOTE: Glare in photo image of calendar caused by protective cellophane covering.
