Description
Albany: Passenger Department (of the Delaware and Hudson Railroad Corporation), 1906. 1st Edition. Soft cover. VG-. Scarce passenger and tourist guide to resort and vacation destinations serviced by the Delaware and Hudson Railroad - both its rail and steamer lines - including Lake George, Lake Champlain, the Adirondacks, Saratoga, Sharon Springs, Published in handbook format, measuring 4.25 x 7.25", with pictorial cover front and back, 316 pages, illustrated with maps in three color and photos in duotone. Includes local listings for transport, restaurants, hotels, spas, and sites for sport, fishing, boating etc. Covers worn, internals quite good. The book has been pierced in the upper right corner, apparently to be hung by chain in a train station for use by the traveling public. There are several variant titles of this work issued by D&H Railroad located in OCLC; for this specific title there is only one edition published in 1930, for which there are only 4 copies. We could find no copies of this 1906 edition, presumably the first or early edition of this tourist handbook. Owner name with Rensselaer NY address in juvenile hand on the free front endpaper.
