Flogging Asian Beauties To The Yanks A Half-Century Ago

Here's a vintage pamphlet pitching pre-war Vietnam to American tourists.

"In Saigon, the doe-eyed shapely Vietnamese girls dressed in the most gracious way! In Dalat, the pretty Vietnamese hostesses with gowns split to the waist. In Hue, don't miss the Dong-Khanh school girl, whose hair hangs long and shining in a tail at least to her waist (the boatgirls of the Perfume River, on the other hand, are just often pretty). And when you've done sightseeing, you can kill wild and harmful beasts such as tigers, leopards, for a mere $22, and there is no tax for killing them!"

Anyone know of anything like this from the era's equivalent to the TAT?
