Thanks to John's Corfu World, for locating and posting this old travelogue (produced 1952). It shows Dassia as it was, at the very beginning of its post-war mass tourism development period, with the opening of the Club Med.
Let's hope that the current economic problems don't lead to more exploitation of the environment and even greater gashes in the mountains and deeper holes in the ground, as you can see in this photo of Horepiskopoi. The quarry was photographed from the air by Spiros Salvanos (a photo he sent to me in December 2010).
