    Description

    For sale is a 4" x 7" advertising brochure published by a group of very early tour operators in the Buffalo, NY area. It appears that 3 different operators have gone together to promote their tour buses and cars to take tourists around the city and to Niagara Falls. Included in the pamphlet are schedules, routes and prices charged for the tours. This could be thought of as an early Grayline tour company. They call their vehicles the "Cars With the Silver Stars". There are a number of other advertisers that have added their services to the brochure, including eateries, hotels and even the Larkin Co. A very interesting early travel and tourism pamphlet.
