This might be a tough one to come by. I acted as a consultant on the book "The Seashore's Finest Train" (about the Blue Comet) and have had a long interest in the train myself. However, I don't recall ever seeing what I would consider a large or closeup color image of the drum head. None of the CNJ books I'm familiar with show it as such. On the other hand, the pre-war circular "New Jersey Central" herald from the Comet/Bullet/etc. locomotive tenders appears quite often in print! Both Walthers and Clover House used to make an O scale decal set that included the herald but I don't believe these are in production any longer.
I'd suggest posting this question on the CNJ forum at www.railroadnet/forums/jersey/ as there are quite a number of informed Jersey Central fans there who should know if anything like this is actually available, and where.

Looking for graphic or photo of the New Jersey Central herald used on the Blue Comet. Been unable to find a suitable image with enough detail so I can recreate it for my library of heralds.
If any one can help with some information I would appreciate it.
Thanks
