Inserted into tissue paper pockets throughout this large spiral bound, magnetic fastening folder are facsimile ephemera such as the front page of The Daily Mirror 1924 with the headline 'The King As Driver of the Windsor Castle', a promotional picture of the Flying Scotsman and other famous steam trains, and dozens of postcards as we climb aboard this treasury. It covers the Early Pioneers, Steam Goes Public, Rain Hill Trials, Robert Stephenson and Co., Steam Abroad, Competition in the South, Railway Rivalry, Standardisation and Imported Technology, Grouping, World War Two, Nationalisation and BR Standard Locomotives, Steam In Decline, Famous Men In Steam, and Brunel The Heroic Engineer among the chapters. Lovely colour artworks, archive and colour photographs and clear text, but best of all is the fantastic poster and other iconic ephemera. Very collectable and an incredible price.
