(World) Our New Neighbors
1944Our New Neighbors - Projected Global Air Routes showing Great Cirle Mileage between Important Cities of the World prepared by Western Air Lines...
A stunning decorative next step for air age maps. Drawing from the foundational approach of Richard Edes Harrison of showing the world from an "Air Age" perspective, this colorful and deco influenced work gives a simple and elegant view of the world, as set amongst the planets. Centered on the North Pole and showing all the major cities from continent to continent, it includes vignettes for fish and animals throughout, and is highlighted throughout with silver metallic ink.
Condition is good with some small old folds, and very marginal dampstaining and small tears. Image is wonderful. Image size is approximately 17.5 x 23.5 (inches)
