A rare unused 1927 railroad calendar by Stephen J. Voorhies. Coverage embraces parts of New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts - highlighting the vital New York - Boston corridor. The calendar promotes the services of the New England Steamship Company, the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad, and the New England Transportation Company - steamships, trains, and buses, respectively. An impressive locomotive takes center stage, but a bus, steamship, trolley, and elegant railway bridges are also represented. (more details)
