Item Details

Description

Heading: (Automobile Route Maps)
Author:
Title: Map Guide: Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway Los Angeles-New York "The Appian Way of America" (wrapper title)
Place Published: St. Joseph, Mo.
Publisher:Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway Association
Date Published: c.1925
Description:

34 pp. With 28 strip maps of sections of the route; map on rear wrapper printed in red and black showing the entire route and cities along the way. 23x9.5 cm (9x3¾"), pictorial wrappers.

Rare route book for the great transcontinental automobile crossing in the 1920s. OCLC lists two copies of this 34-page version, dating it 1930s. However, internal evidence ("...the highway... between Pittsfield and the Mississippi River... will probably be completed in 1925" - p.3) indicates an earlier date. OCLC also lists a 27-page issue with the date 1922 (but because of the different numbering of maps and pages, it might be the same issue as the present copy). Three copies of the 27-page issue are listed.
