Aberdeen: Scotland's Leading Holiday Resort

The front cover of a leaflet created by the Aberdeen Corporation Publicity Department to promote the city as a holiday destination. It likely dates from around the 1950s.

The cover features a photograph of a woman at the beach and the description of Aberdeen as "The Silver City with the Golden Sands".

The leaflet folds out and includes a written introduction, listings of things to do and see and various related photographs.

The introduction features an illustration of a black Scottish Terrier (also known as an Aberdeen Terrier). This dog was the tourism mascot for Aberdeen at the time.
