Lot Details

Lot 218
[RAILWAYS] Group of approximately 40 large-format vintage gelatin silver prints of steam engines,
likely 1920s. Most approximately 12 x 23 1/2 inches (305 x 600 mm), flush mounted to thin card. Some toning, edge defects etc., but very attractive, framed.
The images include locomotives for both industry and transportation. These may have been part of an industrial archive, as the size far exceeds that which one would expect from the images of a railway enthusiast, and all the engines bear the plaque of the American Locomotive Company, the largest manufacturer of the day, which speaks to this likelihood.
