DB : Städteverbindungen - Sommerfahrplan 1959 : Deutsche Bundesbahn : City Connections Summer timetable 1959 : covers
A small booklet issued by Deutsche Bundesbahn, the then state railway of West Germany showing the main inter-city routes as at Summer 1959. There is also a double sided plan showing " Das F-Netz in der Brieftasche" - a diagram showing the main services and times that was designed to fold and fit in your wallet. It is of interest in that the service pattern studiously avoids Berlin and East Germany but includes the relatively recently introduced TEE - Trans-Europ Express - services as well as certain other international services.
The covers are dominated by the bold red locomotive along with vignettes showing major landmarks across the DB network.
