| Annual consumer catalog from 1971. One of the  coolest covers ever for Lionel(and this is an MPC  era catalog). Illustrates 16 prewar and postwar  catalog covers on a black background, that looks  great. The exciting news for 71 was "The Mighty  Sound Of Steam", talk about innovation. Featured  items included; DT&I NW-2 switcher, PRR 2-4-2  steamer w/sounds, S.F. alco B-unit, General Mills  Maxi car, 6560 crane car(tough piece), flat with  dozer and scraper, and lots more. 1971 was almost  an exact repeat of 1970, with a few additions.  Still, they sold a lot of trains. 12 total pages,  with foldout cover. Great cover for the paper  collection.    |
