Description

Great Northern Railway Ad 1963Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad that wants to excite you with the amazing scenery that can be viewed from their Great Domes as you travel from Chicago to Seattle-Portland. There is a drawing of the inside of one of these cars as it travels through a mountainous landscape which is amazingly visible from the seats. Surprisingly it seems that only one person is bothering to look outside, everyone else seems to be looking at something in their hands. The headline tells us that “Skyscrapers are made to be looked up to” and talks about the scenic views that will be available to you, mountains high up and eye-level objects that will occupy your waking moments of travel. They urged you to send away for your free folders of their trips.
