1928. 32pp. Magazine touting Virginia produced by Norfolk & Western Railway with puff pieces on everything Virginia from the beaches in the east to the mountains and caverns in the west with photographs of hotels in every town and district. This is an advertising piece extraordinaire for the Roaring Twenties with pictures on every page. There is a fantastic track map of N&W's reach in 1928 inside the rear cover with every stop labeled in teeny-tiny print. The magazine is remarkably undamaged for 93 years old with a small chip to the lower right corner of the front cover a bit of separation to the lower 1.5" of the spinal fold that doesn't affect anything and does not really compromise the magazine's integrity. A previous owner has written "Keep" and something indecipherable on the front cover not affecting any text or graphics. They also wrote something I can't read on the first page along with "1928". 42919 . Good. Paperback. paperback
