Holiday Exotica
€ 38.00
Going anywhere nice? By coach, cruise or even Concorde? Holiday Exotica will take you on a globetrotting tour of vintage holiday brochures. This first ever visual guide to how we once satisfied our wanderlust, both at home and abroad, travels alphabetically from Africa and Australia to the United States and Yugoslavia, with excursions to Bognor Regis, Belfast and all points in between.
Exchanging everyday drizzle and drudgery for exotic cocktails and beach loungers, these rare, nostalgic brochures reflect our shifting attitudes to tourism in the pre-internet era, when travellers were lured by designs promising a jet-set paradise with perfect weather.
