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:

 an embossed very heavy stock-covered bound book  

“In Honour of our American Guests”

Dedicated to our American Guests by the Elite Autofahrt

Edited by C.A. Kiesel and published by Neue Verlagsanstalt Berlin.

This 55-page guidebook was written to attract American tourists to travel Germany by car.

Many cities and their famous sites are listed and photographed. 

 

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!
