    Description

    Up for sale is this authentic (as in not a reproduction but an actual period chart) of the  "Trainshed for The New Union Passenger Station, St. Louis, MO. Geo. H. Pegram, Engineer."  This was published by the Engineering News in their April 28, 1892 issue. It is blank on back. Chas. Hart & Sons did the lithography. It is on medium weight paper. Please note that any red in the pictures are only digital and not on the original that you will receive.
    There is a rough edge at the top where it was liberated from the journal. It is in very good condition. Is this place a restaurant now?
    The overall size of the chart is 14" x 21". The size of the central image inside of the black border is 10 3/4" by 18 1/2", leaving ample room to have this matted and frame so it will make a nice addition to your den. The chart will be shipped to you folded the same way it has been over the last 100 plus years.  Please note that the first two pictures are scans. My scanner is  not large enough to scan the entire chart, so I do it in two halves. The last pictures is a photograph of the entire chart. I am a terrible photographer but it gives you a look at the full picture. Also please note that sometimes it will show brown or black along the folds, that is shadow from the paper not laying perfectly flat, not actual discoloration of the paper.
    Please e-mail with any questions.
    Thanks,
    Kevin
