Written as a "letter" and signed (modestly) "The Whole of Cayman", this booklet was published by the Cayman Islands Yachting and Sailing Club around 1936, with the design and printing done in Scotland by "Robert MacLehose and Co. Ltd., Glasgow". The front cover, and each inside page of text and photos are individually reproduced (in full size -- except for the centre spread) below.
A copy of this rare booklet was generously given to the Inn as a gift by guests Paula, Middy and Youjing Streeter of New York, after finding it in a bookstore back home. We scanned it for our website, convinced that it would be of interest to anyone living on or visiting Grand Cayman, and then, given the absence of any date, consulted the Cayman Islands National Archives about its origins.
In the context of contemporary Cayman, most incredible are the prices mentioned (£3, per month, for renting a furnished house -- about US$14.85 at the time; and 30s, a month, for hiring a "domestic servant" -- about US$7.43), as well as the photos of George Town, Pedro Castle, and a totally secluded and undeveloped Seven Mile Beach (the "Western Beach"). A plot of land could be bought at a "ridiculously reasonable" price, the "poorer people" all made rope in their "spare moments", and the isolation of Grand Cayman ("...within reasonable reach of the busy world...") is underlined by the fact that you could leave the island once every two weeks by regular boat service from George Town to Kingston, Jamaica!

producer Lee “Scratch” Perry. He was a wild and crazy guy, and I mean that in a good sense. He was not on the same charts I was on. He understood the music and where it was coming from and what it represented for society. He was a one-man operation, trying to help people create music and churn it out there

TuffGong Recording Studio: the vinyl album pressing plant. In one corner they still have the old pressing machines used in the 1970s when Marley was alive – not in use today but still interesting to see. The rest of the plant is in current use and still producing vinyl records, with a capacity over 1,000 per day in fact! Showed vinyl beads which are loaded into the machines and then melted so they can flow onto the platters, where they are imprinted by the stamper physically producing the grooves in the vinyl records we all know from the old days. The last steps are to trim away the excess vinyl from the edges of the records and then glue on the labels. Fascinating to see how it’s all done! #tuffgong#recordingstudio#kingstonjamaica#tuff#gong#kingston#jamaica#tuffgongstudio#raretour#vinyl#creations#makingrecords#designinglabels#cdproduction#acetate#masterdisk#imprinted#machinery#tuffgongrecords#jamaica#historic#strictlyroots#innercirclemusic#allinnercircle#NewPosts#ComingSoon

Studies shown from huffington post the top rap artists who by which use the most'unique' (-as in higher literacy use of terminology) number of words within their 35,000 first bars (lyrics) that're up there in number comparison with #shakespeare and #mobydick. Large vocabulary use and lyrical skills is what is most key in the potency of true rap and hip hop music. Those who are not on this graph most likely haven't reached near 35,000 words in verse-word count or arent listed. Just to name some of the artists that are up in between them; #mfdoom, #e40, & of the #wutangclan.
