About the Book ~"The Corn Exchange National Bank takes pleasure in helping to make Philadelphia better known to its own citizens and to visitors from afar in a way unique among guide books. The present volume should bring motorists flocking to Philadelphia. It should also stimulate new uses for the automobile at home [remember that this book was published in 1925]. For the book does more than tell about Philadelphia, it shows how to visit and enjoy every nook and corner of the nation's greatest historic city. It does this chiefly in the form of attractive motor routes, which embrace all the places and memorials of historic and scenic importance in and about Philadelphia." ~ ~ ~ ~ ~This Book would be nice for any Historian, Architect, Traveler, Collector, or for anyone interested in Philadelphia or US History, Architecture, or Vintage Photographs of Philadelphia!It would be a nice Gift!
