Genuine Antique Printed Color Pictorial Map
c. 1929
Maker: Arthur Edward Elias.
Antique printed color map featuring the province of Ontario, Canada. Undated but many professionals seem to agree that it is from 1929 (see David Rumsey Map Collection, part of Stanford). The artist uses a pictorial style showing some of the good sport of the area with some humor. The map features images of sportsmen, bear, moose, and more, with the Great Lakes, roads, railroads, and cities including Ottawa, Toronto, and Niagara Falls. Also has an inset map of Northern Ontario. Very good antique condition with some minor wear to pages, minor water stain at lower right corner, also some possible minor spots. approx. 9.75 x 14 inches to neatline.
