    This is a early and rare map of the entire United States and shows the landing fields, both "improved" and "unimproved" as they were then available to airplanes. The insets are of Boston and Vicinity, New York and Vicinity, Los Angeles and Vicinity, and San Francisco and Vicinity, and show the landing fields in those areas. Verso is a map of the United States showing the Auto Trails and Tourist camp sites. The many named highways are shown in inset with their distinct markings as this was before the numbered highways were developed. There are also insets are of New York and Vicinity, Los Angeles and Vicinity and San Francisco and Vicinity. This large and useful map was contained in a hard cover pocket of a guide book which lists the airfields and auto camps with some information on each. The guide for instance gives practical information about the landing fields available if they are "Swampy", "sodded", etc.

    Condition of the map is good with some separations at the corner folds, the guidebook is very good with light wear. Image size is approximately 26 x 41 (inches)
