(64) pp., pictorial wraps; Book shows wear to spine fold w/ some very light edge & corner wear / A souvenir booklet dating either from 1943 or 1947.

Also found on the opening page is the curious statement "destined to become 'The World's Largest City by 1968, '" though the booklet obviously does not date from that time. No other date mentioned in the book is later than 1942. Illustrated with B&W photos, primarily focusing on architecture, a hand-colored cover, and a map. /. Stapled Booklet.
