“Don’t drive until you arrive,” urges the ad on the inside front cover of this edition. “Rent a car while you’re there,” it adds poetically with a picture of an Eagle streamliner featuring a dome car.

Although dated a full six months after yesterday’s timetable, the four-color history page on this one says it is no. 10 in a series of historic landmarks. Since yesterday’s was no. 9, there must have been no intervening timetables.

The page features Hot Springs, Arkansas, described as “America’s first national park.” In fact, it was the first reservation set aside by Congress but did not receive national park status until 1921. Today, it commemorates quack medical treatments more than any natural or historic wonders. The illustration accompanying this “landmark” page is “Keil.”

The state capitol page celebrates Topeka, Kansas with another unsigned illustration. Note also that the stripe on the bottom of the front cover is back to yellow and black instead of yellow and red.
