This vintage postcard features the historic 1889 Baldwin Locomotive displayed at Harold Warp's Pioneer Village in Minden, Nebraska. The locomotive, originally numbered 343 and rebuilt in 1914 by the C.B. & Q.R.R., is shown proudly resting in front of the Lowell Depot alongside a narrow gauge wood-burning Porter engine. The scene captures a bright, clear day with a classic American flag flying on a tall flagpole, and authentic structures such as a school and sod house visible in the background.Printed by Dexter in West Nyack, New York, this standard-sized postcard (5.5 x 3.5 inches) showcases mid-20th century printing techniques and color saturation typical of postcards from that era. The detailed caption on the back, credited to photographer Otto Done, provides historical context and enriches the collectible value of this piece. A must-have for railroad enthusiasts, Nebraska history buffs, or postcard collectors interested in Americana and vintage transportation memorabilia.
