Chesapeake & Ohio Lines, 1939

Chessie, always tucked in. :D   I love the perfect hint of pink in this ad.

Tupi the Cat approves. As an aside, it is a shame that those lines are no longer in service.

Yes. Chessie is a classic. The outline is all that's painted on the train cars, which looks really strange unless you know what the original picture looks like.

My thought exactly. It was years before I saw a printed version of the cat, so all I knew was the cat was at a bit of an angle and had a paw sticking out. Much like the cat in the shoe ads (seen elsewhere in the thread).
