[BCMA] The Railroad Magazine, Feb. 1949 & Western Homes and Living February 1958

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Try putting in a search on eBay. 

I have located various rare magazines that way, including a late 1940s
sports magazine showing my mother in the penalty box during a University
of Toronto women's hockey game. She was labelled as the "bad girl of
hockey" so naturally although we knew of the photo, she was not anxious
to share her clipping of it with the family. ;-)

One magazine I am still looking for is "Western Homes and Living"
February 1958 which was published in Vancouver and has an article on our
1865 Irving House in New Westminster. We have the magazine but someone
has removed the article. The cover shows a 1950s flat roofed house (blue
on upper half, white lower half) with two cars visible in the driveway.

Subject: [BCMA] The Railroad Magazine, Feb. 1949

We are trying to locate a copy of the February 1949 edition of "The
Railroad 
Magazine".  It has an article in it by Ed Pugsley on the avalanche
disaster 
at Rogers Pass in 1910.  If anyone has a copy or has a contact that we
could 
follow up on, it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jennifer
