Several years ago, Pat Dugan of Woodinville painted a wonderful watercolor of the Snoqualmie Depot. Now this image is available on a note card (blank inside) and as a pre-matted 8x10 inch print suitable for framing. The image is true to the depot design and would make a great addition to any home or office decor. The card is a delightful way to send thank you notes or other correspondence to your friends and family. The note card is offered at $2.50 (includes the envelope) and the print retails for $35.00 |
