Just in time for Christmas, I discovered that someone faked a Lionel Trains pin up model advertising! Merry Christmas!








I find it hard to believe these are legit, and since they do not show up anywhere else, they may be fakes to scam people out of money, after all, if they were real, wouldn't someone else have posted them for sale?

    2. Chuck that's brilliant. Ah, who was Lionel trying to sell to here? That second post card marks the year I was born.

  3. I find it hard to believe these are legit given the ad campaign in the 1950s was based on wholesome father son entertainment.

    1. agreed, and the date stamps vary way too much to be real. 1935-1951
