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. |
