There is a listing on ebay for a "CB&Q" stainless steel passenger car sign, stated as an original from one of the stainless steel passenger cars.
Looking at the lettering, and comparing it to all the photos I have, including in all the books on the Q, the lettering style is different.
The letter "B" is "fatter", and the "&" is designed differently. All the letters appears to be too "fat" when compared with photos of actual cars.
The seller also includes a photo of one of the cars, which clearly shows the difference between an original and what he/she is selling.
Did the Q use the style of lettering as noted in the item being sold? I'm not saying that it is a fake, or that the seller knowingly is selling a fake, but it doesn't look right to me.
