Re:(erielack) Fogg Erie Painting?



Trains Magazine for February, 1948, compared the Erie S-3 and S-4 berkshires aand featured a Howard Fogg  rendering of #3361 at FX Tower on "Port Jervis Hill".  It's in black and white in the magazine, so I don't know whether it's a b&w or color original.  It is signed with his full name, which was his practice as he started to be published; his work first (?) appeared in Trains and in Beebe & Clegg's Mixed Train Daily in 1947.

Then, of course, his ads for Alco featured Erie FAs at least once.

I would still like to hear more from the original questioner about the painting he has.  As an early Fogg, hitherto unknown, it would be of great interest.

I don't think that Fogg ever did an Erie steam loco painting.

But Fogg lived here in Boulder and his family gave all his notes, photo and neg collection that he used for reference, etc. to the Colorado Railroad Museum Library. Plus the Museum ahs considerable sata on Fogg. 

Since I work in the Library as a volunteer researcher, I will check thios out with what is in the archives plus talk to the Fogg experts there. Will get back after I see what I can find.
