Obsolete Bank Bills with Trains

Well for a few people here I have expressed my desire to get some bills with pictures of trains on them. I have placed a offer on a bill and waiting to hear from the owner.
I really like it. In this case the train picture is on the back of the bill and it is a $2 dollar Train Ride Bill.
I hope I get it, it looks like it is new made to me.

I don't know why someone from Maine would have an interest in trains. They ride moose up there, don't they?

Anyway, I would imagine there are many kinds of coins, medals and paper money that depict trains on them, and this is one of my favorites from 1836.

BTM, any way to post a picture? If not can you tell us State of issue, or Dates, etc.?

 

I just received confirmation that I got the $2 Bill.
Here is the picture.
I really like this a lot.

BTM, Excellent note!

 

Congrats! That's a beautiful note!

Various train vignettes used by the American Banknote Company.

 

I'd post the large sized Series 1902 National $50 with a steam locomotive but the locomotive is flanked by a buxom and topless young lady that is quite inappropriate for young eyes on this forum.

 

I like that one too. I will now be forced to find that so I am on the look out.
What is ExRickieB?

Help me understand, if it was printed on bills all those years ago, why can't it be shown as art?

Also I see people call it currency, paper money, bills, & notes, which is most correct or relevant to discussion?

 

Because June Cleaver would not approve.

 

And that's the hypocrisy of the whole mess; and I think I had best stop right here before I get myself in trouble.

 

And I do not intend to satiate the prurient fantasies of pubescent age young men!

 

So you are saying it is looked at as offending to this forum?

"but the locomotive is flanked by a buxom and topless young lady that is quite inappropriate for young eyes on this forum."

I've never understood this reasoning. One of the first things infants become aware of is mothers' breasts. I also never understood why Ed Meese, attorney general of the US, ordered the GSA to cover the breasts on the Justice statue. Meanwhile, kids in most European countries grow being exposed the T/A from a young age. Wanna bet which countries have the higher number of sex crimes?

 

I own some Czechoslovakian and Romanian notes that depict such mother feeding child activities, nasty Europeans anyway - descending to the depths of banal human existence.
