Summary
| Description |
Photo of the streamlined locomotive Aeolus (#4000) at the head of the Denver Zephyr. The photo was taken by noted railroad photographer en:Otto Perry. Perry earned his living as a mailman in Denver; photographing trains was a hobby he pursued for many years. Perry was also known to travel outside of the Denver area to photograph trains. Like many other railfans who take photos, Perry had prints made up as postcards and used a ink stamp to identify their work as these photos were shared with others who also had a hobby of photographing trains. |
| Date | February 26, 1938 Denver Public Library uses the same date. Dating the card according to the AZO stamp box on the back, this style of stamp box was used by AZO from1925 to the 1940s. |

Pre-1978 no mark |
- I have archived the eBay auction and both views of the card-front and back-so it can be seen that this was not obtained from the Denver Public Library. DPL has only been able to sell prints of Perry's work since his death in 1970.
- The card has no copyright markings on it as can be seen in the links above.
