History of Pine Knoll Shores (Continued from page 12)
By the 1960s, ads were appearing in local publications as well as around the state. The History
Committee thought that Shoreline readers might like to see some of the original ads marketing
“Carolina’s finest beach colony.” Take a look, and decide for yourself whether you would be tempted
to buy a choice home site for your little cottage by the sea.
