(NYC - NY) A Swell Map Of New York Shewing The Way Of The Transgressor - With Helpful Hints For The Man About Town..., John Held Jr. , c. 1930
Beyond style, John Held's maps contain content, even when it is heavily dosed with humor. Whether looking at the double standards of the day, inside jokes around prohibition or night life, Held wasn't constrained to polite approaches to culture. Here his map for the lay of the land for points of significance that might cross a young person's path in Manhattan. A fun and very loose treatment for the lower half of the island. Condition is very good. Image size is approximately 10.25 x 7 (inches)
