Description: In 1972, EMD held an open house celebrating their 50th Anniversary. It was a huge event and I wish I would have been able to attend. This listing is for a brand new, never used, NOS (new old stock) 50th Anniversary press kit. These were given out upon request to any news agency that requested one. Not sure how many were made. There were 2 versions of this kit made. One was an abbreviated version that contained mostly printed material and other was the deluxe version that had a special inserts and a double cover. This listing is for the full blown deluxe version.
