Swampy's Florida

Lots no longer with us since this advertisement for a special pull-out section of the Miami News. First gone is the Miami News. The News, a little over a year later, in 1966, started merging with the Miami Herald and hobbled to the end of publication in 1988.

Also gone is the Orange Bowl. Not long after a huge event celebrating the Orange Bowl, the structure was demolished in 2008.

As newspaper reduce and reduce size, the pull-out sections have also been disappearing. Many, as the one advertised, have become the want of history collectors, like Swampy’s Florida.

This advertisement in The Miami News, December 17th, 1964, is looking for others to advertise in The Miami News in a special section.
