Description

A RARE FIND!

This real photo postcard is a wonderful piece of railroad nostalgia. It shows three young engineer/surveyors with their equipment in a railroad yard, while a train engineer watches from the engine of an old locomotive. The card, which has an undivided back, was never mailed, but the date Sept. 1910 and the names of the three men - Baum, Savidis and Collier - are written on the top of the card. I'm not sure if they were working for the railroad or the government at this time, but I do know that a few years later Collier worked for the government on a survey of all railroads in the country in anticipation of WWI. Notice the bell on the train engine in the background.
The card is printed in a dark brown color and is very clear with lots of detail which is hard to see in the scanned image. It is in excellent condition.

USA Buyer to pay $1.00 s/h, plus insurance if desired.
International shipping charge to be determined.

The winning bidder(s) must pay the seller directly for the item(s), and it is the seller's responsibility to fulfill the order when payment terms are met. The binding contract of the auction is between the winning bidder and the seller.

    If the seller is unable to establish contact with the high bidder within 3 business days of the end of the auction, he/she may lose the place as winning bidder, and be at risk for receiving negative feedback and/or a Non-Paying Bidder warning, both of which can ultimately lead to suspension from eBay.
