Over 100,000 Virginians called Roanoke home. Straddling its eponymous river within the Shenandoah Valley, Roanoke became a city nearly overnight thanks in part to the railroads. Serving as a critical junction of major railroads the city bloomed with industry, which led to the moniker of the Magic City. The Roanoke Ironworks was one of many such institutions in the city due to the fabrication of steam-powered transport vehicles. The cover has that company writ large in Century Schoolbook typeface along with the location below. Vent holes are arrayed in the center and a gumsplat remarkably in the shape of the city sits near the bottom. These covers are nearly all bald, so this graphic is certainly a keepsake.
