It looks to be a 1920's 40' long / 8-1/2' high woodside boxcar that was painted by someone in a style somewhat similar to an 1880's-1890's Anheuser-Busch 34' reefer.
Thanks for the info. I beleive the photo was taken in the mid 1960's.
This is a good question for Tinplate Bob(my dad) to anser.I made a copy of a photo he took of A Budweiser boxcar.It looks like a different boxcar than the one in your photo though.I always liked the graphics on the 1970s Lionel Budweiser refrigerator car.

You might consider submitting the picture to A-B and asking them if they have any knowledge of that. Its worth an email.
