This pictorial map was created by Elmer Jacobs and is filled with small images and vignettes of the people, culture, history, and natural resources of the United States. The major mountain ranges and rivers are illustrated, and the states are drawn in simple outline. Images include Native Americans hunting and trading with fur traders, covered wagons traveling west, logging in Washington, ranching in Texas, mining in Colorado, and slaves working the cotton fields in the South. Produced by Rand McNally for the Brown & Bigelow publishing company.
