Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:1798043 |
For your consideration is this very rare and early antique souvenir/advertisement foldout brochure for the "Hotel Astor" (Astoria) in Times Square, NYC. There is no date, but based on the style and the types of cars and buildings we see, I would guess it is from the 1910's - 1920's. I was not able to find anything quite like this interesting and beautiful piece in my research. This piece is chock full of information on the hotel's history and numerous gorgeous color plates depicting th...e famous hotel as it was at the beginning of the last century! The colors are still super bold and bright, and the illustrations are wonderfully detailed. A steam engine illustration is on the back. Measures approx 17" long when folded out. Condition is fair to good - it looks like the front panel has been repaired at the creases with tape at some point (see photo), and cover has some wear along the outside edge. It has survived the years relatively well, and has a lot of character and history! This is an extremely unusual advterising piece depicting one of the most famous hotels in New York City - a great addition to any collection! Please be sure to examine all photos carefully using the zoom feature for condition & details. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
