(erielack) Phoebe Snow Box cars

["David J. MV" <dmvgvt_@_earthlink.net>]

I was just looking at the EL-DL&W/ERIE equipment book. In it it was stated
that the Lackawanna started using the Phoebe Snow "billboard" lettering in
1942.  Why did they do that 7 years before the debut of Miss Phoebe in Nov
1949?
