I don’t know what to call these mini souvenir books, but I have a large collection of them. In fact, I first began collecting them as a kid when my grandparents took me to see Hearst Castle.

I love all of these and used to get really excited to buy them as a kid.
My favorites are the one where the place is exposed through a painter’s palette, especially the California Redwoods one.
Do you keep these out or they stashed away in a box somewhere? Are you still collecting them?
Excellent collection!

Yes, I keep them stashed in an old Sunshine Biscuit tin (which features scenes from around ‘America, the Beautiful’). No, I don’t collect them anymore. Funny, I don’t know why I stopped collecting them. Like you, I used to get excited over them as a kid, but eventually lost interest.

How cool Michael. Was that Hearst Castle book the one on the trip with your grandparents?
