DESIGNER UNKNOWN SEE BOULDER DAM / NEW YORK CENTRAL SYSTEM. Circa 1937.
38x26 1/2 inches, 96 1/2x67 1/4 cm.
Condition A-: minor repaired tears and time-staining in margins; minor abrasions in margins and image.
An exceptional and early image of America's most famous dam, in which the technical details of the structure stand out amidst the almost primitive rendering of the surrounding mountains and the distant Lake Mead. This is a rare and unusual variation of the poster promoting the New York Central Line; this same image was used by the Union Pacific Railroad in advertising their "Boulder Dam Route."
