26.5x40.75" poster has been mounted to heavy linen backing. Poster features great image of streamlined "6100 American Railroads" locomotive at top. Poster's full text includes: "To Do Full Honor To The American Railroad In More Than One Hundred Years Of Its Triumphant Success There Will Be Presented Each Day At - The New York World's Fair 1939 - A Huge Dramatic Spectacle Of Growth & Achievement With Works By Edward Hungerford And Music By Kurt Weill & Employing A Cast Of 250 Men & Women, 50 Horses & 20 Locomotives, Old & New, All Operating Under Their Own Steam - The Entire Production Will Be One Of The Sumptuous Magnificence On A Scale Never Before Conceived & Employing Every Modern Method Of The Theater To Present A Picture Of Great Strength & Beauty, Humor & Achievement Upon The Largest Stage Ever Builded {sic} In New York & Facing An Amphitheater Enclosed And Seating 4000 - When You Come To The Fair You Cannot Afford To Miss The 17 Scene Exhibit Of The Railroads & This Triumphant Rail Pageant." Lower portion shows crowds milling about various trains, old and new. Poster has moderate handling wear w/creases and pinholes at corners, 2.5" tear at top center and 23" tear at bottom center. But as linen-mounted, these issues do not distract greatly. Lower right has 1.5" spot of faint moisture staining. Fine overall.
