Rock Island Railroad Speed Logo Luggage Tag
From www.railphotoexpress.biz
Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacific Railroad Company, by name Rock Island Railroad, or The Rock, A railroad company founded in 1847 as the Rock Island and La Salle Railroad Company to build a line from Rock Island to La Salle, Ill. By 1866 its lines extended from Chicago to Council Bluffs, Iowa.
Management in the late 19th century was extremely conservative, but new interests took over in 1901. By 1907 the line attained its peak length of 14,270 miles in 13 states, but this rapid expansion impaired its credit and it was reorganized in 1917 and again in 1947.
In the 1960s the Rock Island again began to decline. Merger discussions with other railroads failed, and it began bankruptcy proceedings in March 1975. Federal loan guarantees kept it running, but in January 1980 a federal judge ordered the railroad liquidated on the grounds that there was no way of reorganizing it for profitable operation. Its properties were sold off piecemeal in the early 1980s

Acrylic Luggage Tag
As an artist I think this personalized luggage Tag is extremely essential, especially that I was given the option to add the barcode to my website. Exactly what I imagined it. Worth every penny ❤️

I ordered a set of Mickey and Minnie at the same time. Although I had the shipping trouble, I am so thrilled when I finally had them together. It is a perfect gift for a married couple. Wording are clear. beautiful printing.

The high quality tags that arrived were far superior to my expectations. The printing was exactly as it appeared on my computer screen while ordering. Everything is sharp, vivid and crisp. My tags included a complex QR code and when scanned by my phone it is instantly recognized and leads straight to my contact info. Here is the best part--all this greatness is wrapped in a crystal clear acrylic that is sure to outlast the luggage. You can feel the value the minute you get one of these tags in your hand. I highly recommend Acrylic Idea Factory--You will too!
