Antique Southern California 1946 Roads to Romance Pictorial Map – Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Malibu, Simi Valley, Ventura, CA

Beautiful, antique pictorial map of Southern California, from Malibu all the way down to San Diego and into Mexico all the way down to Ensenada, including San Bernardino County and southern California to Arizona. This is an extremely rare, authentic 1946 edition, 1963 print from the Roads to Romance Assn., Inc., and is NOT a computer reproduction. Is handsomely illustrated and has dozens of vignettes, within the map and along the border

See what the California Coast looked like over 75 years ago. Lots of intricate historical and geographical details and contours. This map is truly rare and the landmass covered is immense—no small feat for how detailed it is. On the back is a modern road map, description and history of the counties depicted on the map as well as photos of tourist destinations. Truly a cool map!

Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts.

Edition of 1946, printed 1963

Condition: Very Good Vintage condition, commensurate with age. This map is in great shape for being 60 years old. Has some edge-wear, toning, foxing, and folds as-issued, but these will flatten easily and all will read as vintage character when framed.
