This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed for the July, 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
Those Zephyrs are certainly doing a job these days, Tom.
Yep, they’re giving us speed where it really counts.
Bill – Take those two Zephyrs right
there, for example. Both of them make
an 875 mile round trip between Chicago
and the Twin Cities every day.
Tom- Average well over 60 miles an
hour, don't they?
Bill - Yep-that's why they can make
a round trip every day instead of a
one-way run. And that means they can
carry twice as many people.
Tom - That really means something
when Uncle Sam's got so many men
to keep moving.
Bill - Means a lot in handling important
civilian travel, too.
Tom - I understand the Burlington's
got a lot of Zephyrs running around
the country. I’ll bet they're all plenty
busy, these days.
You’re right, Tom – everyone of our 14 diesel-powered Zephyrs is
dedicated to one objective-to handle as much vital traffic as possible,
as fast as possible. That goes for Burlington’s entire fleet of steam-powered
trains, too-both passenger and freight. More than 35,000
Burlington workers are dedicated to the same cause.

A great Vintage Ad!
You pick your frame color, and you pick your mat color. We will mat and frame your Vintage Ad per your request and send it to you promptly. All you have to do is remove it from the box and hang it on the wall in your home, office, garage, man cave, or showroom!
We mat and frame original, vintage magazine ads...they are in good condition, but may not be perfect as they are many decades old. Frame outside dimensions are 15" x 12", and matted ad is approximately 9-5/8" x 6-5/8" (could be slightly different, depending on ad).
Frames and vintage ads are actual as shown, and mat is computer generated for online viewing. Actual mat is custom cut for each individual ad and mat color will be similar to the colors shown on the website. “Travel Route 3 Scan” watermark is placed on the ad for online viewing only, and is not part of the final product. Back side of Vintage Ad is glued to backing paper so that it continues to display flat over time. Here is what you will receive:
- New frame
- New mat
- New glass
- Vintage Ad
