Históricamente se suele atribuir a Manuel Fraga, ministro de Información y Turismo entre 1962 y 1969, haber lanzado todo tipo de campañas turísticas bajo el eslogan ‘Spain is different', interpretado por muchos como un intento del régimen por convertir el atraso y aislamiento del país en un mito exótico. O la España del sol, la playa, la pandereta y la folclórica. Pues es falso.
Pese a la creencia general, en los años sesenta no hubo ninguna campaña oficial que utilizara ese eslogan, como demuestra Sasha D. Pack en ‘La invasión turística'. Sólo se utilizó como reclamo turístico durante la autarquía de los años cuarenta y en ciertos momentos puntuales de los cincuenta. Algunos atribuyen la creación del eslogan a Luis Bolín, corresponsal de ‘ABC' en Londres (contribuyó a conseguir el Dragon Rapide con el que Franco voló desde las Canarias hasta África para sublevarse) y primer encargado de la Dirección General de Turismo franquista.
