A rare, early poster for travel to California. We could only locate one other copy in the Wisconsin Historical Society. The bucolic landscape depicts the mountains, rolling hills, fields and foliage of Southern California, complete with golf players and a distant mission. The railroad's logo that appears on this poster was only used between 1914 and 1932.
