Ive been wanting to get my hand on 1 of these posters for quite a while now.I dont know if anybody remembers these posters, they used to have one at the paystation for the Electic Company on Chelmont, its an illustrated picture of EL Paso with funny but informative drawing of All of El Pasos attractions, it had Western Playland, the diablos at dudley, downtown, the international bridges, the Sun Bowl, at the time, their wanst much in the far eastside, so it just had pictures of desert & cacti & snakes.Hopefully somebody knows what im talking about, if you do, would you know where i would be able to buy 1 of these pictures.
