About This Item
Cape Cod 1980. Published by Blair Associates, Providence, RI 1963. You look at the cover and think "Wow this is a pretty picture book on Cape Cod in 1980." Don't be deceived! This is the actual report from Blair Associates Inc., for the Massachusetts Department of Commerce Barnstable County Commissioners Cape Cod Economic Development Council. The Cape Cod Plan is a recommendation for the distribution and control of development through Barnstable County during the 2 decades leading up to the 80s. The 11 by 11", 103 page report includes information on the population, the projected population, summer visitors, summer residents, comparative per capita income, retail sales, camping, airports, zoning, tax bases, highway construction recommendations, and much much more. Illustrated with charts, photographs, diagrams, maps, etc., this is a fascinating look back in time to 1963, and what their plans were for today. Okay not today, I guess now it is almost 40 years ago. Time flies. Condition: pencil notations to the margins to make corrections in text. Light edge wear, minor creasing and dust soiling to covers. Folding map in pocket in fine condition.

I started out as a book collector and soon progressed to owning a book store with over 80,000 books and more than 10,000 pieces of ephemera, postcards, and other items. I exhibited my stock for years at book and paper shows around the eastern United States. As the book and paper business has changed over the years, I have changed the way I do business to evolve with the times. I now offer my items for sale on the web only, through my various listing services and web sites. Being a a collector, as well as a dealer, I understand the importance of condition, as well as rarity of an item, and the desire to own scarce and one of a kind items.
