The aerial of Pleasantville looks like it actually was pleasant, surrounded by fields, and showing that the golf course was there as far back as 1942.

I wrote a paper once on all those Norway of the New World ads, they are in the back a photography book which compiles photos from all around the island. As a starting point I used them to branch off a look at newspaper ads, hotels and their size, and hunting/fishing lodges in existence, and did a neat little history of tourism in Newfoundland project.
