Description
Full color 10″ x 14″ ad for just how comfortable a ride on this railroad can be. The ad has a headline of “The Lady Takes a Trip on the Santa Fe“ and has a series of drawings that show some of her experiences. The first shows her being greeted politely and escorted onto the train and going to her room. She freshens up at her personal bathroom then goes to one of the lounge cars where she meets an interesting person. The two ladies go to the dining car and enjoy a Fred Harvey meal after which she goes to the observation car to relax and enjoy the scenery. The day ends with a few chapters of a good book in her correctly illuminated bedroom then off to sleep in her comfortable bed. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
