BERN HILL (1911-1977) SCENIC ROUTE OF THE EAST. Circa 1950s. 24x18 inches, 61x45 3/4 cm. Condition B: tears and creases at edges; sharp crease through lower left corner; tears in image. Paper. Throughout his work for General Motors Hill "single-handedly managed to represent almost every railroad of the day" (Vintage Rails, January / February, 1998, p. 75). He also graphically captured architectural, engineering and natural wonders along the various train routes. Here, he shows an Erie Railraod locomotive making its way across the Starrucca Viaduct, which was completed in 1848, near Lanesboro, Pennsylvania.
