    Summary

    Description Postcard photo of the Rexall Train which traveled North America in 1936. Rexall was a chain of pharmacies in the United States and Canada. Since the effects of the Depression were still being felt by many people, the company's president had an idea to have a traveling Rexall convention instead of the traditional meeting in one place, which would save the attendees travel expenses. The train's stops were where its local conventions would meet; the public could tour the 12 car train, which had displays of Rexall products as well as meeting areas via a free ticket from a local Rexall store. The train was leased from the New York Central Railroad and its locomotive was a streamlined 4-8-2 "Mohawk" type.
    Date No date on the card, but this took place in 1936 as per links.
