     Yes, the "Center Of The Nation", here a promotional atlas for the resources, infrastructure and business ecosystems. While it touted itself as the "breadbasket of the world", there was also some mining and oil & gas industries. It's a great collection of topical maps to promote the state during the post-war boom. 
      Most notably, this is George F. Jenks personal copy of the atlas he created, and is signed on the front cover. Condition is good, but with some staining and wear. 32pgs. Overall size is approximately 10.5 x 15 (inches)
