Author Not Indicated   SKI IN CHILE Publisher: Chile 1938. Brochure, two-fold about 9.5 x 4 inches folded. Color cover image on cover flaps (two panels), skis and skier. Inside has two somewhat dim B&W photos and text on skiing in Chile. Although this isn't dated, it mentions the ski teams who raced against Chile in the Pan American Ski Championships in 1937 and 1938 and mentions that a small hotel in Portillo was nearing completion and "will be ready for the 1939 season when the Pan American Championship will be held there." One corner is a little rumpled (not torn) but overall this piece is very clean and quite striking.
