Genuine Antique Printed Color Pictorial Map
c. 1929
Maker: Arthur Edward Elias.
Antique printed color map featuring the province of Nova Scotia, 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 railroads and cities including Halifax, Sydney, and Inverness. Includes an inset map of the eastern parts including Cape Breton. 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.
