Being offered is a mixed lot of 5 vintage travelroad maps. Included in the lot are, 1) isa vintage city fold out map. It istitled Official Arrow City Map by the Pikes Peak News Agency. The map is of Colorado Springs, Colorado, andhas Special Tourist Information. The mapshows all streets main thorough-fares, highways, railroads, principal municipalbuildings, and points of interest. Ithas sections on the Air Force Academy along with Colorado College. The map is an insert to covers. The covers do show age and wearing with edgeand corner creases, bruises, soiling, and tiny edge tears. The map itself has some corner and edgecreases in places and some small spot tears along the folding or creasedportion. The map folded out is approx.42" by 28". I am not sure howto grade something like this so have taken close-up pics to help assess theitems condition, what you see is what you get.2) is a vintage gas stationtravel vacation road map. The map is ofNew Mexico and was put out by the Standard Oil Company, Chevron gasstations. This is a pre interstatehighway road map and shows the old route 66 which was a major road on the wayto the west coast. There is also asmaller map of the United States, and has maps of Santa Fe andAlbuquerque. There are radio stations,points of interest, and touring map. Themap is approx. 18" by 27". Icould not find a copyright date but the map shows the population of New Mexicoas 681,187. I entered this population inGoogle AI and was informed, "New Mexico had a population of 681,187 onApril 1, 1950, according to the 1950 United States Census." The map does show age related wearing in places. There are small or tiny tears in places alongthe crease lines but is overall attached and intact. There is some slight soiling in places butlooks clean and the colors remain good.I would say this map was seldom used as there are no major rips, tears,or stains. 3) is a vintage, fold out, Iowaroad map.
