Includes an excellent auto travel guide to Mexico from the 1950’s, when there were only a handful of rough & ready routes from the United States into its southern neighbor. From Sunset Magazine/Lane Publishing in 1959, the 95-page 8.5” x 11” paperback covers all the bases of travel by car, for American tourists in Mexico, with chapters on general information/border regulations (very different in that simpler time), the West Coast Highway, the Central Highway, Eastern Routes to Mexico City, Mexico City and Side Trips, the Yucatan Peninsula and Baja California (both ends of Mexico were lightly settled and mostly undeveloped at that time); and several vintage tourist brochures: one for the city of Tampico, on the Gulf of Mexico (from circa 1960), and another for the “Veracruz Circuit” (a stay in Mexico’s premier seaport, Veracruz, coupled with a road trip inland to the heart of the Mexican highlands (Jalapa, Huamantla, Apizaco, Mexico City, Puebla, Tehuacan, Orizaba, Cordoba) (from 1971).
