Found this on the interwebs the other day. If I didn't have a layout, I would totally think about this one. It screams "1950's Lionelville"

Nothing like good old Lionel fun!
Chris: the big "King Pike" on the opposite side of the poster is the one I drooled over for years as a kid. This poster came with my original set back in '52.
Nice! Wish I had a pic of the track plan. Sounds like something cool!
Maybe one of the knowledgeable track plan design folks around here will make one and post, or has already made one and will post it?
You can buy the poster.

I have no connection to this seller or auction.

Very cool, especially for those of us interested in Dealer Displays (although that one is not an actual Dealer track plan).
1952 was just about the time the Dealer Displays were getting started. And then '53 and beyond in earnest. Notice that for the surface it says paint green and while still wet sprinkle on No. 919 Artificial Grass. Tried and true method!
Thanks for posting this; I just bought it from the Ebay seller. Looks nice!
