Ron BirchallSanta Fe logo on dial
Some of you may have seen this at National as Lindell had shown it to a few. It is an Elgin Veritas ca 1907 with a Santa Fe logo dial. The dial looks like the one on p 52, image 177 of
Railroad Timekeeping edited by James L. Hernick. That dial is on a 1921 Father Time. There is also a similar dial on a 1914 Bunn Special (p 46).
I know dials with authentic RR logos are pretty scarce. Can anyone shed any light on these Santa Fe dials? (for who were they made?, time frame?, quantity?)
Any other RR logo dials to share? Post them here!
Regards,
Ron
