‎Victor Garfields (Atlanticus)‎
‎Garfield's Pocket Guide to São Paulo and Brazil. 1953‎

‎Very rare American guide to São Paulo, Brazil. A small 185 x 135 mm softcover booklet with 193 pp. Edited by A. Ratenieks and Victor Garfields in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, 1953. In English. Full of typical 1950s ads, this booklet describes to the English-speaking visitor what he can expect in São Paulo: the "picturesque environs", cultural life, museums, hotels.. with one folding map. Of note is a advertisement for a fur-caring service (in a place where winter barely exists!) A true snapshot of the vibrant São Paulo, then fastest-growing city of the world. An extremely rare reference - almost nothing found on the Internet. Emitted before the 4th centenary of the city.‎
