1945rif. 247Cover has some minor stains and wear especially along the spine edges which is pretty typical for something from 1945. Inside though the pages are clean bright and free of marks or highlights. So overall I'd say it's in good condition especially considering its age with just some typical wear on the outside. The Boston & Maine Railroad Minuteman Service Travel Guide published on October 15 1945 was a promotional pamphlet highlighting a premier rail route through Northern New England. It provided schedule details for the Minuteman train connecting Boston and Troy New York and showcased attractions like the White Mountains. The guide was created by the railroad's Passenger Department and didn't credit an individual author. The Boston & Maine Railroad Minuteman Service Travel Guide, dated October 15, 1945 paperback
