This is a vintage original English language foldout travel brochure on Italian cuisine that features a large map of Italy covering the entirety of one side. The map of Italy is surrounded by decorative illustrations and text menus for the different regions of Italy. The lower righthand corner indicates this map was printed by Alfieri & Lacroix Milano. The verso features the cover panels and a glossary of Italian food terms titled Gastronomic Dictionary. Also printed on the cover panel is the ENIT logo indicating this is an official publication of the Italian tourism authority. This map isn’t dated but is a vintage original that looks to be from the early to mid 1950s. This brochure shows light handling wear and bit of light scattered foxing in places. Overall condition is very good.
