HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS- 1890'S |
| While sorting through old magazines for
our
AD ART
GALLERY, I ran across a most interesting old... old...
magazine-like booklet minus cover and a few early pages. It was called
"Cutter's Guide to the Hot Springs of Arkansas". Age had discolored many of
the pages, whose edges were tattered and torn. The more I searched through
the find, the more I became intrigued with its contents. Statistics for the
City of Hot Springs were printed for 1888, and a railroad travel map was
dated 1891, causing me to conclude the booklet was probably printed in the
early 1890's. The beautifully reproduced pictures from the era and the
significant historical content were enough to convince me that it was well
worth a "save effort"... so here it is for all to savor and enjoy as I did.
If you have ever been to this quaint city, you will appreciate every minute
you spend in this pleasant walk back in time. Don't forget that you can click on all the pictures and text to follow for an enlargement of the material for better viewing. |
