A month or so ago I asked which topics (i.e. collectible categories) would you
like to see in upcoming Zephyrs. The current issue has an 8+ color illustrated
listing of all CB&Q-issued scenic postcards. Previous issues have covered
common items like timetables & uncommon categories like car seals.
I had 8 responses to my survey on this site; half wanted wall calendars
covered; other responses were China, pocket watches, postcards issued for
specific trains, etc. In my replies to those wanting coverage of wall
calendars I mentioned the problem would be size; how to illustrate 30 or 40
wall calendars? (I have some from 1890's to the end but again size makes it
hard to illustrate in a few pages in a standard size publication.) So how
about pocket calendars? To do so I need help with pre-1940 versions as I only
have a few. So if you have (or can access) pre-1940's, let me know which yrs &
we will arrange an appropriate scans. I would also show the special pocket
calendars for the Twin Zephyrs; anyone aware of similar calendars for CZ, DZ,
etc? Also will show the EMD ones - anyone aware of any NOT showing Q F units?
Tks! You can contact me offlist at vje68@hotmail.com Gerald
