    Description

    Program for Dedication Ceremonies of the BANGKOK - SARABURI HIGHWAY. Provides a history of the construction of the Thailand highway. TEXT in THAI and ENGLISH.
    One of the main speakers at the dedication ceremony was the American Ambassador Graham Martin. Did the involvement of the U.S. have something to do with the fact that the Bangkok-Saraburi Highway was built in the midst of the Vietnam War? Hmmmm. Nothing of the sort is mentioned, of course, but I would say YES.
    Booklet, paper covers, side stapled, 8x11 inches, 20 pages including covers PLUS a fold open map.
    GOOD condition, there is a crease to the upper corner area, light creases overall from handling, and handwritten comments in Chinese on the blank part of the inside front cover (probably relevant, perhaps interesting, no idea), otherwise solid, bright and clean.
