Vintage Swiss Travel Pamphlets – Locarno/Ascona
I have a knack for vintage postcards, stamps and brochures. There, I said it! I am in marketing, so my eyes are drawn to elements of typography, copywriting, use of color, etc.
Over the next few weeks, I will be presenting you with a number of vintage Swiss travel pamphlets from my personal collection. So to kick it off, here is a beauty from way back in 1960!
Look out for more vintage travel guides coming soon!

Hi Marc! Thank you for letting us know about your collection of vintage advertisements! I will be sure to have a look…
You got a real nice collection of Travel Pamphlets – my space was the Sotto-Ceneri around the Lake of Lugano. Nice memories, thanks for the good mood :))
I’m glad I was able to lift you up, Musekyto! We had a great time hiking Monte Generoso a couple of years ago, but we ended up getting lost on the Italian side and had to backtrack ;-)
