Agreed Sansome! Will keep hunting for more.
In the meantime, found some more ad scans, perhaps I should make a Stifel/Wabash thread here too.

Thanks Sansome; apparently Stifel took on various custom prints like these for railroads. Here’s a salesman’s sample for one for the Erie Railroad and the corresponding wobble shank button:

Yep, can't wait to get it!
