This is an antique double-page spread advertisement for The Regulator Line, a line of steamboats which ran the Columbia River, carefully removed from January 1905 period publication (original -- not a reproduction or reprint).
This double-page spread sports two magnificent wide-angled views of the Columbia River basin, and the captions provide descriptions of what is visible in the two images: the steamboat "BAILEY GATZERT," Hood River, Wind Mountain, White Salmon.
The caption points out that "The steamboat [visible] is the 'BAILEY GATZERT,'" and that "some conception of the heights and distances may be obtained from the fact that the boat is 175 feet long."
2 pages. Each page is approximately 6 1/2 x 10 1/4 inches. The double-page spread would measure approximately 12 x 20 1/2 inches.Your historical advertisement will be presented in a cleararchival sleeve with acid-free cardboard backing and certificate of provenance,
and shipped in a rigid mailer with extra cardboard reinforcement to preventbending.
Very uncommon. Nice for collector or designer.
