Item Details

Description

This is a Chicago Elevated Terminal Railway Company prospectus book dates from the early 1890s. The first elevated railroad was built in Chicago in 1892, and in 1913, all four of the elevated railroads in Chicago consolidated. We have never seen another print copy of this book, which has 30 total pages. Cover has tears and frays. Pages have minor blemishes. Written and published by railroad founder Joseph T. Torrence. A must-have for the Chicagoland railroad enthusiast!
