This is a two-colour advertising broadside/broadsheet poster advertising available land in the Hi-Line region of northern Montana.

While some settlers had made their way to this part of Montana before the railroad arrived by a bumpy and seldom used trail, the Hi-Line region of Montana lay virtually undeveloped until the GN railroad arrived. The railroad moved thousands of farmers and ranchers into Montana, and then moved out the crops they raised. Numerous towns sprung up along the railroad, acting as a supply point and transportation point for the areas remote farmers and ranchers. This advertising broadside is mounted in a black painted wood frame, is in good overall condition, slight scuffing noted, the broadside exhibits age tanning, slight tears noted at top , no other obvious damage noted. Frame measures 10.25"W x 24.75"L, visible poster measures 9.25"W x 23.5"
