The above photo shows the Hotel Playa de Cortés in Guaymas, Mexico, as the SP once had a line from Tucson down the West Coast of our southern neighbor. The 1937 ad below features this hotel. The other menu covers show San Antonio’s Brackenridge Park; the New Orleans French Quarter, the southern Arizona desert, and Lake Tahoe.
