The corresponding square is B&O RR

For each drawing of a two-syllable word, there is an adjacent drawing
of a word you would get if you chopped off the first syllable.  The
first syllable itself sounds like a letter.  Reading those letters
left to right spells BALTIMORE, the home of the B&O RAILROAD.

The pictures are:

  Beaker     (B + cur)
  acre       (A + cur)
  elbow      (L + bow)
  teapot     (T + pot)
  ice cream  (I + Scream)
  emboss     (M + boss)
  ocher      (O + cur)
  Argo       (R + go)
  Ebert      (E + Bert)
