Blue Card Covers With 'Marine Studios / Marineland / St. Augustine . Florida" On Front Cover Half Title Page With "Thru The Ports At Marine Studios." Very Early Booklet With Tourist Information On The Marine Life Exhibited At The Marine Studios Circa 1939/1940 Scarce With Only A Few Copies In Institutional Holdings Shown In Worldcat. A Fine As New Example. Marineland Was First Conceived By W. Douglas Burden Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney Sherman Pratt And Ilya Andreyevich Tolstoy Grandson Of Leo Tolstoy As An Oceanarium That Could Be Used To Film Marine Life. A Site Was Selected On The Atlantic Ocean South Of St. Augustine Eventually Known As The Town Of Marineland. The Site Of Marineland Is Within A 20000-Acre 8100 Ha Grant Given To London Barrister Levett Blackborne In 1767. The Well-Connected Blackborne Grandson Of Sir Richard Levett Lord Mayor Of London Never Settled His Grant Nor Even Visited Florida And Eventually Blackborne's Plantation Was Regranted To John Graham A Georgia Loyalist Fleeing The Revolutionary War. Ultimately The Land That Is Today Marineland Was Broken Up Over The Years Into Smaller Parcels.Financing And Construction Presented Challenges As Marineland Was The First Attempt At Capturing And Sustaining Sea Creatures. These Challenges Were Overcome. Construction And Engineering Were Carried Out Arthur Franklin Perry Co. Of Jacksonville. On June 23 1938 "Marine Studios" The Name "Marineland Of Florida" Would Later Be Adopted Began Operations With Its Main Attraction A Bottlenose Dolphin. Unexpectedly Over 20000 Tourists Clogged Highway A1a To Visit The New Attraction. For Many Decades Marineland Consisted Of Not Only The Oceanariums But Several Amenities Including A Motel Marine Village Court Marineland Motel And Quality Inn/Marineland; Dolphin Restaurant And Moby Dick Lounge; Periwinkle Snack Bar And Sandpiper Snack Bar; Marineland Marina; Plus Fruit Shop And Gift Shop; And A Pier At The North End Of The Facility. A Texaco Service Station Was Adjacent To The Periwinkle Snack Bar And Greyhound Bus Lines Stopped Regularly During Its St. Augustine To Daytona Beach Run. The Total Property Area Consisted Of 125 Acres 51 Ha Sandwiched Between The Atlantic Ocean And The Intracoastal Waterway. Originally Planned For The St. Augustine Area Residents Of That Community Did Not Look Favorably On The Attraction Being Located There; Thus The New Site South Of Matanzas Inlet Was Chosen. Having The Grandson Of Leo Tolstoy Involved In The Project Helped Marineland Become A Very Fashionable Destination In Its Early Days Prompting Writers Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings John Dos Passos And Ernest Hemingway To Visit Moby Dick's Bar Located There. Ms. Rawlings Was Married To Norton Baskin Who At One Time 1950S/Early 1960S Was The Operator/Manager Of The Dolphin Restaurant/Moby Dick Lounge. The Park's Facilities Were Very Popular With Tourists And Also Used For Numerous Movies Including Creature From The Black Lagoon 1954 And Revenge Of The Creature 1955. Trained Dolphins Became An Additional Attraction In The Early 1950S As Marineland Became One Of Florida's Major Attractions Attracting Over 900000 Visitors Per Year With Peak Attendance In The Mid-1970S. The Opening Of Walt Disney World Resort In 1971 Gave A Major Boost To The Attraction's Annual Attendance. <br/> <br/> Marineland / Marine Studios [Circa 1939 / 1940] paperback
