Nashua/New York, Concord Railroad/American Bank Note Co., 1889. BAnQ Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie (AFF B 2371 CON).

« Acquise en 2007 lors d’une vente aux enchères à New York, cette remarquable affiche est un vibrant témoin du battage publicitaire suscité par le cinquième carnaval d’hiver montréalais, en 1889. Transporteurs et médias américains n’hésitent pas à en partager les retombées économiques et médiatiques avec les notables, gens d’affaires, autorités municipales et clubs sportifs locaux. Bel exemple de la maîtrise technique déployée par l’American Bank Note Co., l’exemplaire acquis par BAnQ porte la mention d’une petite ligne de chemin de fer qui courait sur 56 kilomètres au New Hampshire. »
