(3) Small Old Wentworth By The Sea New Hampshire Hotel Items
Wentworth By The Sea   New Hampshire   Hotel   Advertising   Souvenir   Historic   Americana
The pictures show a view of all (3) Small Old Wentworth By The Sea New Hampshire Hotel Items in this lot. This is a historic hotel resort that was the location of the 1905 peace treaty of the Russian Japanese War. For years the hotel had been threatened by demolition because of disrepair and lack of funding for restoration. The hotel resort was finally purchased, restored and reopened again in 2003. Here are some words from their website:

''Poised high atop a bluff overlooking the ocean and river below, the historic Wentworth by the Sea once again offers its guests a bygone lifestyle of grandeur and elegance.''

''Located on New Castle Island, NH, just an hour north of Boston, the Wentworth opened in 1874 with much fanfare. It instantly became a favorite destination for socialites, film stars, and presidents, including delegates to the historic 1905 peace talks that ended the Russo-Japanese War. The island resort blends the best of the past with the finest of the future.''

''Today's spectacular restoration and new construction brings back the hotel's glamour as it officially becomes "Wentworth by the Sea, A Marriott Hotel and Spa" in 2003.''

The first item in this lot is a 1970 color photograph slide. It is of the entryway with passengers boarding a Massachusetts bus. The sign on the bus reads ''QUINCY POINT CONG. CHURCH''. The slide is marked and dated:

Wentworth By The Sea Portsmouth, N.H. 9-10-70

The next two items are old advertising match covers. The first one pictures a colorful image of the hotel. It has some advertising inside as well. All of the matches are present with their tips cut off. It is marked as follows:

Wentworth By The Sea
Portsmouth, N.H.
Golf - Tennis - Swimming
Entertainment Nightly
Seaside Buffets and Clambakes
Cocktail Lounge
Horseback Riding
Boating

The next match cover has a clear cellophane covering that is peeling as pictured. It can be removed if desired. It pictures the old hotel logo and reads as follows:

The Wentworth
By - The - Sea
Portsmouth, New Hampshire
03801

All three of these for one price! To judge the sizes the smaller match cover measures 3-3/4'' x 1-1/2''. The conditions are as pictured.
