My favorite suggestion for safety -- whether you are a boater or not -- "Keep an alert lookout!"

LEFT INSIDE: Wisconsin Boating Pamphlet
This is may be the largest item I've ever found in a book. Sorry I can't tell you which book though. It's a 12 page pamphlet measuring 7 1/4" by 3 1/2", that folds out like a map. The first four pages (no photos show in this post) describe how to get a boat registered, where to place the registration info on the boat, a list of what craft are allowed and during what hours, a list of the types of fire extinguishers, and lifesaving and safety info. I chose to take photos only of the actual boating laws and rules. Though not dated I would guess this comes from between 1950 and 1969 based on the design, front illustration and the fonts used.

I think the pamphlet has to be post-1963 because the address includes a zip code.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was a postcard dating from the 1920 at a seaside resort that said. Had a good time. Weather was fine. I returned intact!
