Reports

In this “Third Report of the Committee on Publicity and Promotion,” dated December 1899, the Appalachian National Park Association adopted the magazine “Southern Pictures and Pencillings” as the official organ of the association. The committee planned to distribute 2000 copies of the first issue, with 1000 copies of subsequent publications. The committee had already printed 5000 copies of a small booklet entitled, “A Few Reasons in Favor of the Establishment of a National Park in the Mountains of Western North Carolina.” Originally, the group favored western North Carolina as the sole site for a proposed national park.
