Negril Guides

[Mike_D]

Great stuff! I'm really enjoying this thread. I love reading about places that existed before my time.

I'm guessing that this free guide is different than hardcover guides found in hotel rooms that say "PROPERTY OF HOTEL - DO NOT REMOVE". (I once got billed $50 because my wife took a Puerto Rico guide book from a hotel in San Juan.) I'm surprised I haven't seen these free guides around.

i booked my trip for feb 26 through Negrilonestop.com and i posted a photo of myself standing in front of Jennie Westmoreland's "Jennie's Favourite Cakes" in 1981. That was the first time i had been to Negril and was the first time I had sampled the "Special Cake " for 50 cents US

Many thanks to Scant for posting an earlier guide then I have ever seen. If anyone else out there has any guides that havnt been posted yet, particularly the ones I listed earlier in the thread as not part of my collection PLEASE post. I will be continuing to post from my collection...I just havnt gotten around to it yet.

To Mike D...these are free and not like the hard cover books in some hotels. I havnt seen anything newer then 2008. There was a sighting mentioned of a guide in Rooms, but no date was mentioned. Here's a few more scans and brief commentary.

From this guide I also copied some non-advertising info
