Original 1955 Grand Canyon National Park travel brochure, titled The Grand Canyon Beckons! South Rim Open All Year!
This large fold-out brochure is filled with period photographs, illustrations, maps, rates and visitor information for Grand Canyon National Park. It includes information on South Rim accommodations, motor trips, trail trips into the canyon, recreation and entertainment, surrounding attractions, and Grand Canyon history.
The brochure prominently identifies the park’s hotels, lodges, cabins and trips as being under Fred Harvey management, making this an especially nice piece of Fred Harvey and Southwestern tourism memorabilia.
Also includes a large regional road map showing the Grand Canyon and surrounding Arizona/Utah area, along with period photographs of the South Rim, Bright Angel area, trail riders, buses, cabins and other attractions.
Marked No. 1-1955 / Printed in U.S.A. and stamped on the exterior:

Condition is very good vintage condition for a roughly 70-year-old paper item, with expected fold lines and light handling/age wear. Please see photos for exact condition.
A great original piece of 1950s Grand Canyon, Arizona, Route 66-era tourism and Fred Harvey memorabilia.
