BERN HILL (1911-1977) KATY STATION SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. Circa 1950s. 24x18 1/4 inches, 61x46 1/2 cm. Condition B+: restoration and overpainting in corners and image; repaired tears in image. "The beauty of Hill's locomotive paintings are found in the way he captures the essence of each railroad. The 1950s represented a period in railroad history that found America with an abundance of regional rail lines, all featuring distinctive paint schemes. Often railroads operated only in a small geographical location and were unknown in some parts of the country" (Railroad Heritage, No. 6, 2002, p. 10).
