American Locomotives In Historic Photographs 1858-1949 by Ron Ziel

Description: Large format paperback. This rare collection of 126 "builder portraits" of American locomotives offers an exciting cavalcade of images that chronicle the momentous rise of steam locomotive power in America. Builder portraits are especially prized by railway historians because they are the exacting official photographs of new models taken before repairs, alterations, and weathering altered their original appearance. The builder portraits reprinted here were selected from the William A. Rogers collection, a priceless archive of images documenting the history of American steam locomotion from the pre–Civil War era to the mid-20th century.Thanks for looking at Cherry Picked Trains!A couple of notes:Shipping-I do combine shipping.
