Hmmmmm . the company closed its doors in 1954, a mere seven years later! Nonetheless, in its heydey Baldwin was indeed an institution.

	NO AUTHOR Baldwin Magazine (Quarterly, 1947 issue) , Philadelphia: Baldwin Locomotive Works, 1947. /, Soft Cover. Fine/Wraps, Fine. Volume 4, Nos. 1&2. 4to - over 9Â¾" - 12" tall. Very 40's color cover of a young engineer sitting at the drafting board in his skyscraper office with an impressive expanse of windows showcasing the cityscape and providing a sill to show off his dazzling model trains. This is a company publication that came out quarterly. We especially loved the bold and daring statement made in the "Message from Baldwin" column, "History has shown that large national companies such as Baldwin are permanent institutions in the same sense as a library, a government, or a railroad and that nothing can destroy them." Hmmmmm . the company closed its doors in 1954, a mere seven years later! Nonetheless, in its heydey Baldwin was indeed an institution. From 1831 when Mathias Baldwin opened up shop to its demise in '54, the conmpany turned out 75,000 locomotives! Magazine is illustrated with great black and white photos and diagrams and includes articles on the five-fifteen going diesel; die hobbing; back yard railroad; testing, the key to product improvement; diesels in the meat business; and 4-8-4 type locomotives on the Western Maryland. Nice bit of locomotive nostalgia and not many of them floating around. USD 40.00 [Appr.: EURO 26.75 \| £UK 24.25 \| JP¥ 3530] Book number: 9428 Click here to order or inquire at Garrison House Books.
