West Atlantic: Venice of America
Atlantic City New Jersey: Atlantic City Daily Press 1902. Near-fine. A couple small short tears. Minor toning. Original illustrated poster and price list advertising prospective lots in the West Atlantic development in Atlantic City New Jersey. Styled as the "Venice of America" the new development hoped to target the upper class in search of a European-esque summer holiday destination. The poster includes prospective sketches of the buildings; the price list includes prices for dozens of lots/blocks within the development. A revealing record of how new developments were being marketed to the American public in 1902.<br /> <br /> Printed poster measures 23" by 16.75". Price list is single vol. 6" by 4" pp. 8 stapled in original printed wrps. The development does not appear to have been successful if the company's inclusion in a 1906 list of "Obsolete Securities" is any indication. Atlantic City Daily Press unknown
