Description
“America is packed full of strange and exciting places to visit – almost unbelievable curiosities, some man-made, some natural!” [Page 3]
Looking to capitalize on our fascination with the unusual, Greyhound Bus Lines published this brochure in 1941 to advertise 140 ‘strange and unusual places’ across the country. A small map on the back cover identifies the location of each, while the pages within provide a small illustration and brief description.
Possible extraterrestrial landings, the world’s smallest church, the backwards flowing Chicago River, and the narrowest town in America are just a few of the possible sights available along the Greyhound Bus Lines!
