The Railroad Photography of J. Parker Lamb showcases the black-and-white imagery of a master of the craft. Parker Lamb came of age in the South and the Midwest during a time of great transition on railroads in the United States. New technology was replacing the steam locomotives and labor-intensive practices that had dominating railroading for more than a century. Cameras in hand, Lamb bore witness to the end of that era and continued to vividly portray all that followed. His lyrical photographs depict new diesels, waning passenger trains, blossoming freight business, and many of the people who worked in, and were captivated by, the great American institution of the railroad. A biographical essay by noted transportation journalist Fred W. Frailey explores Lamb's life and photographic contributions, while captions by former Trains magazine editor Kevin P. Keefe add context to Lamb's imagery.

A little Flimsy
Love the texture and look of this frame but it doesn’t hold its shape very well and requires actual screws to secure the backing. One of my screw fasteners was broken off the frame in shipping so maybe that’s why it isn’t as tight as it should be but I was hoping for a more secure fit. A LOT of flex and wobble.

Great shelf for price!

Great shelf for price. VERY easy to install. We put one side of screws of metal bracket in studs to make it sturdy & stable. This was KEY! Follow simple drawing dictions and you can’t go wrong! Was Leary about some bad reviews but we had no issues. Came quickly with no flaws. Looks great and is very light, but is stable when put into bracket correctly. Size is beautiful with the thickness & depth of upscale shelf. If you want a nice shelf that doesn’t break the bank- get it. This one worked well for us!
