c. 1920
Maker: Leconte.
Antique printed color map of Paris, France, by Leconte circa 1920. This map is still in its original booklet, and can be removed to frame or left in the booklet as the purchaser desires. The booklet was made in the time when Paris was a major destination for both the artistic American ex-pat (like Hemingway, the Fitzgeralds, the Murpheys, and more) and a serious tourist attraction for those who were interested in the artistic life Paris offered. This booklet contains information for these tourists in the form of a street index, information on the metro and bus lines, embassies, and more. The map and booklet are both in very good condition. The map has some minor seam separations and measures approx. 20.5 x 28.5 inches to the neatline. **SOLD**
