    Description

    Remember when the elite took the “Grand Tour” of Europe in the era between the two World Wars?
    Return to that golden time with some authentic memorabilia of one family’s vacation.
    Found in a suitcase, and hidden for more than 85 years, all of the ephemera
    from a first-class trip are here, from the tickets to the guidebooks.
    This item is:
    a beautiful vintage brochure, circa 1926
    “Belgium Picturesque and Artistic”
    Published by the Counseil Superieur du Tourisme
    This 12-page folder was written in English to attract American tourists to travel within Belgium.
    Many cities and their famous sites are listed and photographed.
    Also, there are color illustrations of the country.
    There is a railway map with instructions for season tickets.
    This rare, stylish piece harkens back to the day when the wealthy had time
    and money for elegant travel.
    It shows little wear, the colors are surprisingly bright, and has been lovingly stored in a
    non-smoking/non-pet home
    A must-have for any serious travel aficionado or for that fan of the Hemingway and Fitzgerald expatriate/Roaring Twenties life.
    The pictures do not do the item or the color justice!
