Book Description

Publication Date: November 4, 2000 | Series: Postcard History
From the early 1900s, when visitors reached the sparkling new bathing resort by ferry, to the heydey of Art Deco hotels in the 1930s and beyond, Miami Beach has cast its spell over millions of people and been transformed into a world-class travel destination. Sandy beaches, a balmy climate, a vibrant local community, and a distinctive architectural heritage certainly make Miami Beach a

one-of-a-kind city.

About the Author

Captured in vintage postcards, the sights of Miami Beach--the Delano and Ritz Plaza Hotels, the Vanderbilt Mansion, Joe's Stone Crab Restaurant, and Wolfie's, among others--have been preserved for the beachgoers of today and those to come. Author and avid postcard collector Patricia Kennedy has selected these historic Miami Beach scenes from her extensive personal collection and compiled them here to offer readers a glimpse into Miami Beach's fascinating and treasured past.

This review is from: Miami Beach in Vintage Postcards (Postcard History) (Paperback)
If you're interested in the development of Miami Beach this is a great collection of post cards. But beware, though most of the original post cards are in color, the entire book is printed in black and white. I own a few of the post cards in color and the difference is dramatic.
