#35 in the damnedest of places!

So I read somewhere that #35, while it sat in Salisbury/Eisenhower Park, was used as a photo prop for numerous occasions. Here are a few album covers that feature #35.
Some may be easier to spot #35 in the background, however, I assure you,  after diligent research and matching the angle to known photos, that it is really #35 in the photos/album covers. I'm still looking for more.
 The photo above was taken on the fireman's side just behind the steam cylinder. You can see the huge casting for the valve gear hanger on the left side of the photo by the singers shoulder
 This ne is way too easy to figure out, but, Keystone, folks!!! You can see the #3
 Roadbed and tube pilot with the staircase to the right side of the photo.
just another style like the 2nd photo.
And, another view looking upwards from ground level. Again, this is a gimme as you can clearly see the keystone with #3 behind the guy in the center. I would love to get my hands on the photographers inventory of slides from that day!
