21656Very Good. A Quintessential Artifact of the Interwar Florida Tourism Boom.<br /> A vibrant and structurally ambitious artifact of Depression-era boosterism capturing the Indian River region's pivot from a rural citrus hub to a premier 'New Deal' tourism destination. <br /> <br /> While many Florida guides of this period focused on the 'Gilded Age' glamour of the Gold Coast this 1936 booklet emphasizes the varied 'Working Man's Paradise'-blending sport fishing marsh hunting and high-yield citrus farming with the newly accessible culture of automobile travel. The multi-panel cover art is a standout specimen of mid-1930s commercial design utilizing the stylized simplified forms and saturated palettes of the interwar travel-poster movement. It provides a rare town-by-town survey of fifteen coastal localities during a period of significant regional identity formation.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES<br /> Design: Multi-panel color-litho cover in classic 1930s travel-poster style.<br /> Local Profiles: Granular coverage of 15 towns including Eau Gallie Grant Indialantic and Sebastian.<br /> Branding: Heavy focus on the 'Indian River Orange' as both a commodity and a cultural symbol.<br /> Visuals: 28 pages of photographs and stylized graphic panels typical of 1930s regional marketing.<br /> Rarity: Scarce; OCLC/WorldCat records only 6 institutional holdings.<br /> <br /> CONDITION: Very Good. The bold poster-style cover remains bright and highly presentable. There is a localized stain to the lower corner of the inside cover and first page though it does not affect the exterior graphics or the structural integrity. Otherwise a carefully handled clean example with only minor wrapper corner wear. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE --<br /> The 1936 Indian River booklet marks the precise moment Florida transitioned from an agricultural frontier into a motorized tourist playground. Produced during the height of the Great Depression it uses "booster optimism" to sell a lifestyle of self-sufficiency citrus and cattle alongside modern leisure tarpon fishing and beach-going. It is a vital record of the 15 included towns-many of which were then merely small fishing villages or groves-capturing their landscape before the post-WWII development boom.<br /> <br /> Subjects: Indian River Florida Brevard County History Florida Citrus Industry 1930s Tourism WPA-Era Graphic Design Sport Fishing History Vero Beach Fort Pierce New Smyrna Florida Ephemera Travel Promotion Americana Regional History Trade Catalogues. unknown
191549937Meadville PA: Keystone View Co. ca. 1915. Three glass slides. 3.25 x 4 in. each with black tape border around the edges of the glass printed text of Keystone View Co. and caption at margins all in excellent condition in small box. These three glass slides depict salmon fishing a cannery and the scenic Columbia River valley. The glass slide showing the first haul depicts the fishermen standing around holding large Chinook salmon that they have taken from the seiner nets laying on the beach hauled in by horse teams out of the Columbia River. The second slide is particularly fascinating as it shows Chinese-Americans cleaning de-boning scraping off the scales dressing and then preparing the salmon caught in fish wheels to be packed into cans to be shipped worldwide. Astoria canneries were one of the chief suppliers at the beginning of the 20th century and their workforce was largely composed of Chinese Japanese and even Northwest Coast Indian workers. The last shows a man sitting in sand dunes above railroad tracks along the River. Keystone View Co., unknown
