(CA - Hollywood) A slightly cockeyed map...

1937

  • ~Cat 64 Holiday Offerings~
  • A slightly cockeyed map of that slightly cockeyed community Hollywood

    A great American artist and illustrator, Groth did everything from court room sketches and war correspondence to illustrating "Grapes of Wrath" and "All Quiet on the Western Front". He was a unique illustrator that worked in a "speed line" style, accentuating motion. Here is his map of Hollywood, notes the big studios ("Chaplin Studio, United Artists") as well as the restaurants and hotels ("Brown Derby, Ambassador Hotel").

    Condition is very good with some minor supportive repairs to the centerfold. Image size is 13.25 x 18.75 (inches), printed color.
