  • VACATION ISSUE • JUL Y 1947
    VACATION ISSUE • JULy 1947 ou MAY HAVE the impression that the fabulous Captain Kidd buried all the treasure of the colonies ... but it is our opinion that he Ynever saw the most valuable of young America's treasures at all. For history seems to indicate that Captain Kidd never sailed the shores of Southern New England How the Captain's eyes would have gleamed if they had rested on New England's silver sands or upon her crystal-clear lakes, majestic mountains and historic shrines. Perhaps he. would even have forsaken the sparkling waters of the Indian Ocean. Although the celebrated Captain long ago lost his chance at New England's treasures, you who are reading this can still see, feel and enjoy them . and a lot more . for much has since been added in recreational facilities, in hospitable inns and in modern travel com- forts. This vacation treasure chest is yours . yours to unlock with any one of the following Keys to Southern New England. :,_,-~- I!:.· NANJU T . With your first glimpse of this low wind-swept island,. unctuated by trim Brants Point Light, you'll feel the presence oi unspoiled antiquity, dating back to the earliest sea-f~ring days of the Colonies. Here, on picturesque Nantucket, are the treasured t'~lics of a swashbuckling whaling post. Slow-moving, horse-drawn sur­ reys still jog down Nantucket's cobblestoned Maln Street. Bees hum busily in wistaria vines and rose bushes cluster over silver-shingled homes, with "walks" on the roofs where the families of old whaling crews scanned the horizon for the return of their menfolk.
