The Gateway to History

[AtrumVorago]

We found this at a Salvation Army. Any info would be helpful. It is designed by E H Spencer, and it is on fabric. Thank you for your help in advance. We even thought about contacting the artist directly, but can't find anything.

AtrumVorago,
I did a Google search for "E H Spencer, York, The Gateway to History." Found one that sold 08 June 2013 at Sheffield Railwayana Auction for about 200 dollar U S. The same image is in The National Railway Museum. Painting was done in 1955. It's not much help but maybe this will start you on your quest. Very nice "Sally Boutique" save. Hope this helps, Terry.

There is an E.H. Spencer Car Dealership near me, PM for info. I'm not sure if it's the same E.H spencer though.

Nice buy - what did you pay for it AtrumVorago?

Thank you Terry for your help. It is greatly appreciated. I have contacted the York National Railroad Museum and I'm waiting for a response. I believe that I payed $5 or $8 for it VPNavy, I don't quite remember which. Thank everyone for your help, and I will post what I find about it.

Went to the source, the York National Railroad Museum. All I got from them was links to all there web pages, and nothing about the picture. Still needing any info anyone can give. Thank you.
