Notes

General Note:
Flier reads: All good roads lead to Miami. Miami in the tropical zone of Florida where winter is turned to summer. Population increase 440% watch us grow 100,000 by 1925. Biscayne Bay, Miami’s beautiful waterfront, is one of the world’s most famous protected harbors; by day the most subtle shades of green and blue; by night the mellow tropical moon bathes it in a flood of silver radiance. This aquatic jewel has a diversified colorful setting: the dark green of royal palms and coconut trees along the shore; the dense mangrove jungle of the fringing keys; the gorgeous reds of hibiscus, poinsettia and royal poinciana; the multi-hued oleander; the purple bougainvillea, and the yellow allamanda. Its clear waters bear cargoes to many domestic and foreign ports; picturesque sailboats and high-powered speed boats skim its waves; palatial yachts find it a safe anchorage; and sea planes wing their way from its surface to foreign countries.
