Charms of Tampa, Florida's Year Round City on the West Coast

Tampa: Tampa Board of Trade.

Undated, c. 1923. 6 x 9 inches, pictorial wrappers. [24] pp, with many illustrations from photographs. Moderate handling wear; very good. A scarce promotional, written in the form of an enthusiastic and very detailed letter from the fictional "Jim" to "Bob" describing all the charms of his recent visit to Tampa, which he describes as a "rare combination of a commercial and a resort city" that "combines the hustle and hurry of a northern city with southern charm and a tropical setting." The text highlights the citrus industry, the harbor, shopping, climate and outdoor recreation, good roads, and opportunities for investment and development.
