Pennsylvania GG1/Steam fans, found something for you!

For you Santa Fe guys!

The framed Pennsy art is the illustration by Grif Teller on the 1949 PRR calendar.  It is titled "Main Line, Freight and Passenger."  The steam locomotive is a J1 2-10-4.

I'm killing time in the local antique stores and came across this picture in frame. They are asking $65 for it. (Don't know if they will haggle over the price.) Will definitely look good in someone's train room!

If anyone wants it, shoot me an email. (Not looking to make a profit.)

Mods, I posted it in this forum since the GG1 is a popular 3R train. Could you let this post slide for a day or two so the forum it's can get a look?

 

I have that exact same photo but in a different frame. Didn't know it was worth half that much.

Here is a modern photo of the basis for the Grif Teller work. (Albeit from a slightly different angle)

It was probably cut out of the 1948 PRR calendar.
