THE GLORIES OF MADRID
THIS YEAR OF GRACE 

in the
 SPANISH CAPITAL


Christopher Columbus sailing from Spain discovered America—It is time for Americans to discover Spain—BURTON HOLMES has just returned with his photographic caravels from a memorable voyage of touristic discovery in Spain.  One of the most astounding things he found there was the transformed city of Madrid with its glories old and new—

ANDALUSIA AND THE ALHAMBRA
SEVILLE 
to
 GRANADA 
with halts at
 CADIZ, CORDOVA, LA RABIDA 
and
 RONDA


Spain cannot be done on the run—The traveler must take his time—so, too, the traveloguer–BURTON HOLMES rushed through Spain once—years ago—This time he took his time—lots of it—The story of his stay in Andalusia, exquisitely pictured, will prove a delight to eye and ear and understanding—




Figure



GIBRALTAR TO THE PYRENEES
FOUR THOUSAND MEMORABLE MILES BY MOTOR


In olden days the Spaniards never spoke of 
Spain
—They spoke of 
The Spains
—There are still many Spains in Spain—each one unique—each with its distinctive cities, towns and villages—So there is no monotony in a Spanish motor journey—every stage of it lies in a contrasting country—BURTON HOLMES has done Spain as it has never yet been done—




Figure



THE IRISH FREE STATE
HAPPY DAYS 
in the
 ERIN 
of
 TODAY


The dreams of the poets and patriots are coming true.  The Ireland of Today is not the Ireland that we used to know—BURTON HOLMES long ago pictured the Erin of the Past—now he brings pictures of a happier land.  The Lakes of Killarney are more beautiful than ever—The Dublin Horse Show of 1928 was the most successful ever held—




Figure



SIAM-THE LAND OF 
CHANG


Revealing the
 COLORFUL ART 
and
 CIVILIZATION 
of an
 AMAZING COUNTRY


That marvelous film called 
CHANG
 has put Siam on the popular map.  But it illustrated only life in the jungle—BURTON HOLMES now completes the picture with a well-rounded Travelogue that tells of Siamese art and architecture, history and industry, customs and singularities—Modern Siam is one of the great show places of the changing East

There is no more varied or interesting summer vacation than the Raymond-Whitcomb North Cape Cruise, followed by a month or so of travel on the Continent




Send for the Raymond-Whitcomb booklet—
North Cape




RAYMOND-WHITCOMB 
North Cape Cruise


Sailing June 26, 1929, on the S.S. 
Carinthia


Within its five weeks, the North Cape Cruise provides a surprising scope of interest.  Remote but brightly progressive 
Iceland;
 the stark 
North Cape;
 the stupendous 
Fjords
 of 
Norway;
 the typical Scandinavian cities and capitals — 
Trondhjem, Bergen, Oslo, Stockholm
 and 
Copenhagen;
 and 
Reval
 and 
Helsingfors,
 representative of the newer northern civilizations in 
Esthonia
 and 
Finland.
  The rates are $800 and up, including return to America.




Individual Travel Service



For continental travel after the cruise, our Foreign Individual Service lends itself perfectly.  Raymond-Whitcomb will make complete advance arrangements — railway tickets, hotel reservations, steamship accommodations — attending to all the details of the journey.  This service is available for the entire accessible world.  It is described in our booklets —

Mediterranean Spring Cruise




RAYMOND-WHITCOMB 
Mediterranean
 SPRING CRUISE

Sailing April 8, 1929, on the S. S. 
Carinthia


This is the only Cruise which visits the Mediterranean in Spring.  And Spring in the Mediterranean is the best season of the whole year — a time of settled weather and bright sunlight, new foliage and flowers.




Out of the way and picturesque places that are rarely visited by cruises are on the route — 
Carcassonne; Casablanca, Rabat,
 and 
Salé
 in Morocco; 
Palma; Malta
 and 
Corfu; Ragusa
 and 
Cattaro;
 and 
Taormina
 in Sicily.



Take it for a Spring holiday — a complete seven weeks' cruise from New York to New York.  Or as a novel and interesting voyage to Europe, with visits to no less than 22 foreign cities and extensive programs of sight-seeing on shore.  The rates include return passage at any date — $725 and upward.




Individual Travel Service



Raymond-Whitcomb will help you plan any trip you wish to make, will secure all your steamship and railroad tickets, reserve rooms at hotels, engage automobiles — in short, attend to all the details of the journey.
