Up for sale is a fantastic piece of mid-century media history: an original vintage advertising poster for The Railroad Hour radio program. Sponsored by the Association of American Railroads, this poster features beautiful, vibrant graphics promoting their "Show Train" broadcast of the world's great musical comedies on Monday nights. Because this piece highlights the program airing on the ABC Network, it can be precisely dated to the show's initial launch period between October 1948 and September 1949, right before the broadcast permanently migrated to NBC.
Measures 18" x 14".
Condition: The poster is in very nice vintage condition for its age. The colors remain bold and bright, and the text is perfectly crisp. It features standard fold lines (divided into quadrants) and minor edge wear consistent with its age and original distribution. Please review the close-up photos to evaluate the front and back condition details for yourself.
Shipping: The poster will be safely packaged and shipped folded and flat between sturdy, heavy-duty sheets of protective cardboard to prevent any bending or damage during transit
