Swansea Ghost Town and the forgotten brochure

Recently I sold on ebay a brochure I picked up at the Armargosa opera House about 30 years ago. Sold for $19.99. Key to that sale was that owner marta becket wrote the room rates on the brochure. Ms. Becket has since passed but her memory is cherished by many who visited the opera house where she did a one-woman show. she was th opera house.

Swansea is a ghost town in Arizona, about 40 miles northeast of Quartzite if that helps. I don’t remember visiting it but have the brochure. I can see why I don’t it because there is nothing there. The internet would have you believe there is a town languishing under the sun and mined hills. There is not. Do not go. But if you do, here is a quick look at the Brochure.
