Hi Ted,
I can assist with a higher resolution image of the Havelock lettering. What
logo are you talking about? Are just referring to the lettering?

Subject: [CBQ] Request for 1950's - 1970's Zephyr Logo
We are in the process of completing the restoration of Havelock baggage car
993 at the Illinois Railway Museum. In the next few weeks, one of the final
items is the lettering of the car as shown on page 39 of Burlington Bulletin
No. 36, and as illustrated for CB&Q 1016 on pp. 30 - 31 in the article
"Burlington's Havelock Economy Baggage Cars". The car is being restored by
the Wednesday Special Projects Group (mostly retirees)saving all labor costs
but for materials, about $800 in the hole. Currently we are blowing up the
side view of 1016 at great loss of resolution, and the call is out for a
better rendition. The IRM Pullman Library unfortunately does not have the
logo. Incidentally, there we are far along restoring, collating and
flat-filing Haskell & Barker (later the Michigan City Pullman facility)
freight car drawings 1906 - 1922 that have a great many CB&Q original car
drawings. The purpose of 993 once restored is to improve storage and access
of other Pullman freight car documentation from the 30's through the 60's.
There is access to our capabilities in the library on the IRM website
irm.org. Hope someone in this group can help us!
Sincerely, Ted Anderson, Pullman Library curator
