New Orleans, The City Unique. St. Charles Hotel, New Orleans, LA
Alfred S. Amer & Co. Ltd, Proprietors.
Softcover. Very good. Undated, ca. 1920. Four-panel folding brochure with very nice cover art, illustrated internally with drawings in color and b/w half-tone photographs. Some general handling wear; very good. Text promotes both the hotel and New Orleans ("the City of Romance") and includes a section on Mardi Gras. The hotel included large spaces to accomodate conventions, meetings, and receptions, and the brochure includes a list of organizations that had "taken advantage of the excellent facilities and servies afforded" -- among them the Western Fruit Jobbers's Association, Association of Dining Car Superintendants, and Cotton Conference of Southern Governors. Rooms for two with private bath began at $5.00 a night.
