This map shows the "homes, offices and hangouts of generations of Los Angeles literati," including 65 novelists, poets, humorists, and historians. Both natives of Los Angeles and those who worked there for a short time period are listed, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tennessee Williams, and Arthur Miller. Above the map is a scene from a fancy party with writers and their characters portrayed. The map is issued in a pictorial printed paper cover, not attached to the map. Created and published by Aaron Blake Publishers.
