| Ski New York Booklet 1952 | Ishpeming-Negaunee Sports Federation Jump Meet Program 1957 | Slippery Lines from Vermont Ski Slopes! | ||
| This book contains pictures, maps and information about ski areas in New York State in 1952. The book is broken into 3 sections. Northern, Southern, and Central and Western. I have posted the book in three sections as well. It is an interesting book and there are some great pictures in it. | This booklet is the program for a ski tournament held in Ishpeming , Michigan in 1957. Ishpeming is where the National Ski Association began and where it's headquarters and Museum are. The organization's name has now changed, however. It is know as the American Ski and Snowboard Association. | This Book contains poems written and published in 1966
about skiing in Vermont. It appears as if all Vermont Ski Areas of
the time are represented by at least one poem. Some have more than
one. This is a limited edition book that I was fortunate to have
contributed to the site. Thanks Dean and Laurie Witham.
