This small foldout brochure was produced by the East Tennessee Automobile Club, which promoted the Great Smoky Mountains National Park as “America’s newest, most picturesque and charming playground.” The club, located in Knoxville, Tennessee, promoted its hometown city as the best way to access the park, showing two maps with Knoxville at their center and the park nearby. Where earlier brochures promoted horseback riding and camping, this brochure is specifically aimed at the motor tourist and promises access to the park via a “brief drive, over good roads.” Many of the photographs in this brochure were contributed by the Thompson Brothers Commercial Photographers.
