Beschreibung

"The following views will give one some idea of the wonderful progress Vancouver has made during the last 25 years. Just compare this up to date City with what it was in say 1886, when there were only 600 people then living in Vancouver. The handsome buildings, splendid Streets, beautiful Bathing Beach, and the Wonderful Stanley Park tell of progress unsurpassed anywhere." Original publisher's brown printed, stapled wrappers. This view book contains colorized views of the Vancouver, B.C. and the surrounding area, There is one illustration per page. The views in this are somewhat different than the views online in "Internet Archive" which leads me to believe that this publisher issued at least two variants of this publication. This is an uncommon early Vancouver item--as the introduction notes, the city only had a population of 600 people prior to the publication of this souvenir view book. The cover title is: "Picturesque Vancouver, B. C." Size: 4.25" x 8" This is not a reprint of an early publication--it is the genuine article! Please inquire if you would like more information. ; Color Illustrations; Oblong 16mo 6" - 7" tall; [32]] pages. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 19597
