This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed in a 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
93 Years of peace and war and growth
Scene in Civil War Days
There wasn't much of the present U. S. A. napped
in the geographies back on November 20, 1850,
when the first train steamed forth on what today is
part of The Milwaukee Road.
Many of our mighty cities of the west and northwest
were then mere outposts. And eleven years were
to pass before the war between the States began.
The little five-mile railroad of 1850 has grown into
an 11,000-mile transcontinental transportation system.
Through wars and rumors of wars, depressions and
years of development and prosperity, The Milwaukee
Road has written its share of American history.
Today all that our free America means is being
challenged. And we of The Milwaukee Road, in
concert with the rest of the nation, are helping to
fling back that challenge.
We are being called on to move more and more
freight and passengers every day. We are keeping vital
war traffic flowing uninterruptedly over our long supply
line from the east and middle west to Washington and
Oregon ports-and through the
Omaha and Kansas City gateways
to California and Texas ports.
Our friends and patrons-both
passengers and shippers-are cooperating
to the limit. They, as
well as we, know the urgency of
the Situation and the importance
of the job we all have to do.

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
