The collection is composed solely of a single handbill which announces the first train for what was then the new Flint Belt Line. The train was scheduled to leave on Monday, June 4, 1923 from Pere Marquette Station.

The bill also announces several festivities in connection, such as the last spike being driven where Davison Road crossed the Belt Line, a free ride on the train, bands playing, and movies being taken. A dinner was announced for subscribers to the Belt Line fund at Hotel Durant.

Paul Purdy signed his name at the date at the bottom of the bill.
