Here’s another piece of on-board stationery I found at the Minnesota History Center. Instead of a color lithograph of Lower Yellowstone Falls, page 3 has a black-and-white photo of Mt. St. Helens, adding that “The wild grandeur of the Rockies and Cascades accompanies the North Coast Limited for a thousand miles.”

This one is harder to date as the back cover is blank and so provides no additional clues. However, the image on the front probably represents the Northern Pacific’s first 4-8-4 locomotives, which were purchased in 1926. If it was from 1934 or later, the words “air conditioned” would have been included somewhere on the stationery. That puts it somewhere between 1926 and 1933. I noted that yesterday’s must have been from 1927 or before, and my guess is it came before this one.

Unlike yesterday’s, this one came with an envelope that has the same steam locomotive logo.
