Fearing New York City in the 1970s

Back in the bad old 70s a group of New York City union leaders and others produced a pamphlet to scare off tourists.  It was a political ploy to influence the mayor, but Infocult readers might be more interested in the sheer horror of its approach, starting with the front page:

Welcome to New York City, kids!

That sets the tone nicely for the rest of the publication, like page 2:

"Good luck." "Don't go out alone." New York City Gothic, ladies and gentlemen.
