Title
Aberdeen Official Holiday Guide
Description
The decorative front cover of the Aberdeen Official Holiday Guide from 1958. This guide was produced by Aberdeen Corporation Publicity Department, then under the direction of H. Webber. The illustration gives prominence to the appeal of Aberdeen's beach. It also includes representations of the Town House, Marischal College and the surrounding countryside. Various artistic and sporting equipment, at the top of the image, symbolise the range of activities available for visitors. The design includes two of Aberdeen's publicity slogans: "Scotland's Leading Holiday Resort" and "The Silver City with the Golden Sands". The city's tourism mascot, a black Scottish Terrier, can also be seen on the beach.
