Came back home we realised that it was like a small treasure, all these brochures dated back to the 30's and contained for example transportation tickets, post cards, theaters programs, so it was sure that people who collected all these documents travelled across all these countries!!!!
FRANCE
ITALY - SPAIN - AUSTRIA - SWISS - ENGLAND
EGYPT
U.S.A : NEW-YORK
BOSTON - MONTREAL (CANADA)
TEXAS
A lot of states parks...
GRAND CANYON
CALIFORNIA
MEXICO
SEATTLE
FAR EAST
JAPAN - CHINA
INDIA
I really love to travel so reading all those vintage brochures made me travel all around the world but not only they also make me travel in time back to the 30's... It's easy, fast and quite affordable to travel nowadays but in the 30's ...!!!! Those people must have been really rich and this world tour must have lasted perhaps 2 or 3 years judging by the dates on those brochures. What a great adventure!!!!
What do you think about this World Tour ?
Do you like to travel ?
Oh, goodness! These are lovely! I'm dying to visit France but Egypt, England, Italy, Australia and New Zealand are high on my list too!
ReplyDeleteYou must definitively come to France, I proud of all the beauties of my country! I have already visited about all european countries, it's quite easy when you live in Europe... Egypt was nice, but I remember to be so ill there. I spend a nice time in China too. The part of the world that I visited the most is North America... I will come to the USA in april for the 8 times!!!
DeleteI plan a trip in Australia for 2013.
Those are awesome! You've found so many cool things at the flea markets. I wish I had had better luck when I was in Strasbourg and Vienna. I have a few old Viennese movie flyers from the 60s and some souvenir photos of Paris probably from the 50s but that is about it!
ReplyDeleteFlea markets are really good in Alsace! I really want to visit Berlin and Vienne in a next week-end!
DeleteYou are s lucky! I can imagine Hercule Poirot (Agatha Christie) holding some of these - so georgeous. They would look great framed too.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are in great shape! I also own a lot of travel brochures from the 50's-60's and must share about it someday!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! What a find. These are so amazing. I do love to travel but it's very expensive so I don't do it very often.
