Santa Fe Grand Canyon promotional booklets appear in institutional holdings across multiple dates but specific printings such as this are inconsistently cataloged and infrequently encountered in the trade. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -<br /> Issued by the Santa Fe Railroad in partnership with Rand McNally a major producer of travel and cartographic material. By 1946 the Santa Fe had long been the primary rail carrier to the South Rim shaping national perception of the Grand Canyon as a structured tourist destination.<br /> <br /> This piece presents the Grand Canyon as both natural wonder and accessible experience carefully balancing awe with practicality. It illustrates how the Santa Fe Railroad framed the journey-integrating rail travel motor coach connections and curated tourist infrastructure into a seamless outing. The imagery emphasizes scale and spectacle while the text reinforces the Canyon's status as a national obligation to visit echoing Roosevelt's widely quoted sentiment. The result is both advertisement and cultural artifact documenting how mid-century America consumed landscape.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: Grand Canyon tourism Santa Fe Railway postwar American travel national parks promotion railroad advertising Arizona travel Travel Ephemera Railroadiana Western Americana. unknown

194944365N. P.: Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company 1949. 1949. RAILROAD. 18" x 24" color print. An attractive print issued by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe celebrating the railroad's sleek modern trains but also highlighting the disruptive force of technology on a formerly pristine frontier. It was said of the Transcontinental Railroad completed in 1869 that it destroyed traditional conceptions of time and space by being able to move people and goods so quickly through vast distances. In this image created eighty years after the laying of the Golden Spike time and space are once again disrupted as modern train design confronts an image of three Native Americans who appear more at home in the mid-nineteenth century than the post-World War Two era. The print shows a long Super Chief passenger train cutting through a southwestern landscape with Monument Valley-type buttes rising in the background and three Native Americans in the foreground. The most prominent of the three Indians atop a trotting white horse wears a long flowing headdress and holds a spear aloft pointed toward the train. Though the chief is moving forward the train is drawn in such a way as to clearly outpace him alluding to the triumph of modern technology over the abilities of man and beast. The meaning of the chief's gesture seems a bit unclear to this viewer - it is hard to tell whether he is saluting the train or cursing it. A captivating western image. Neat expert repairs on verso to the four corners. Short repaired tear in upper margin not affecting the image repaired two-inch tear in lower left just into the image. Very good. Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company, 1949. unknown
