I do not know the origin of these photos. They are on a thin paper stock, not typical photo paper, which leads me to believe they may have been prints from photos used in a publication. They do have a semi-glossy finish. Each photo measures appx 8 1/2 x 7 1/4 inches. All are in excellent condition, with no writing, markings, rips, tears, spills or smears. All are suitable for framing. There is evidence at the top-center of each that they were once connected with a paper clip. A great collectible for the Long Island railfan. (
Note: I have placed the works "Ebay scan" on each scan to prevent pirating. The original photos do not have this marking.)
