    Yeah, great title. And they all tie in, too!

    Most of the large group of documents were Pere Marquette Railroad, a railroad that passed through my town.

    The first shown, from 1916 and about body transport, is from the Ann Arbor Railroad Company.

    Number two I don't know for whom it was for, but it mentions both the Ann Arbor line and Wells Fargo. It is from 1917.

    The next is for the local Pere Marquette, for whom I also have a great postcard from. In this case, they have a reference book on the rates for Dairy transport in 1939.

    Finally shown, the Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacific Railway Co. in 1935 corresponding with Pere Marquette.

    All items ranged from 1888 to 1968 in the lot I bought.
