MEMPHIS Greets You . 1916 #2

 

This second 1916 book of Memphis photos was also published by The Businesses Men's Club Chamber of Commerce.  While some text and some photos in this book are similar to the first book, the overall content is very different.  The first book was primarily slanted to depict Memphis as a great place to live.  This one is directed more toward business, and depicts Memphis as a great place to do business.

 

Thanks to the Library of Congress for this book.
