This piece is a blue cover bearing the Northern Pacific Yellowstone Park logo, a sign of how closely the railroad tied its name to the park. Northern Pacific carried travelers by rail to Livingston, Montana, where visitors transferred to stagecoaches for the trip to the park's northern entrance. The company promoted Yellowstone heavily as "Wonderland," the nickname that appears on the board's label and that was used for the park's geysers, canyons and wildlife. Covers like this one were meant to be kept and reread, so they show how the railroad marketed the park as a destination in its own right.
