Key West : where the tropics really begin ; there is all-year fishing ; there has never been a frost ; you can go to sea in your car ; the sun rises and sets in the sea ; African tribal dances can be seen ; you can go abroad without leaving the United States ; Mayans, Indians, Spanish, French, and English have left their marks.

Sobre este artículo
Key West, FL: Key West Administration, 193x. stapled wrappers. Very Good. Oblong 8vo, [16] pages, vertical crease at center. Very Scarce.
The central facing pages contain a two-page spread of "Map of the Lower Florida Keysr the Key West Archipelago" (which includes an inset map. The final page is a map, "The Coral Isle of Key West", a colorful imaginative rendering. "This Map was Engraved on a miraculous Scale by A. J. Dornbush." Adrian J. Dornbush was an Iowa artist and colleague with Grant Wood at Wood's Stone City Art School and Colony. Dornbush was the director of the colony. WorldCat cites only two entries for this; however, one entry is for the University of Miami, which boasts two copies, each, apparently, slightly different from the other: this example may perhaps be a third variant.

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
