Oblong octavo (10" x 8"): [32] pp. with photographic illustrations throughout. Bound with staples in the original printed paper wrappers. There is archival tape reinforcement to the front hinge and along the spine. The front panel is soiled and smudged, with a chip to the spine heel and a prominent scuff to the rear panel. OCLC locates seven holdings. Highlights of this promotional brochure are communities around Orlando that were frequented by tourists escaping cold winters in the Northeast. Among the black-and-white photographs are images of the beaches, palmetto groves and hanging moss of Ormond, the Plaza Hotel in Rockledge, orange groves, and rocky coastline at Indian River. There are also pictures of the six-story Royal Poinciana Hotel in Lake Worth, present day Palm Beach. Although it once accommodated 2,000 guests, the hotel fell on hard times following damage from a 1928 hurricane, leading to its ultimate closure in 1932.
