Beschreibung

First Edition. Small octavo, (6.5" X 4.75"), beige printed stiff wraps. pp. (xxxii), 176, (xliv). Illustrated throughtout with black and white and color drawings and advertisements and some color photographic transfers. Containing over 10 maps including more than half a dozen folding maps in black and white and color (some triple and four fold) and one two sided 16.5" X 19" folding map at rear of the whole country both sides in color. Also a section of 18 sepia monochrome full page photo illustrations of major points of interest. The maps and plans and the chart for road distances all provided by Shell Oil Co. With a general introduction to the country followed by detailed information on every region and major town in the country (i.e. "The Uruguayan Riviera"). This is a very scarce touring guide for a country generally better known for its inaccessibility and obscurity rather than its tourism. At this period (1950s) it would have been a bold world traveler who would have utilised the road maps in this volume. A very tight, clean, fresh and unmarked volume. All maps absolutely crisp, clean and uncreased without any tears, stains or other defects. Rear wrap has a very small nick at middle of edge. Fine. Scarce. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 04605
