Original New York City Long Island Map and Visitors Guide from 1958! This is not a map print but an old map saved by a tourist over 60 years ago. It will transport you back to a time that includes tolls of 75 cents and parking! An old map that doesn't show the World Trade Centers since they haven't been built or even thought about yet. This visitors guide also sort of represents the first traffic directed GPS as it has routes highlighted to avoid traffic congestion. This would make a terrific piece of wall art for anyone that lives in NYC or a great collectible for those that are lovers of New York City. It was found in a drawer of collectibles from Barbara D who lived upstate in Elmira, NY. She was an artist and a teacher and must have loved her visits to the city since this was kept in such amazing condition.
This old map is in amazing condition for its age. The vintage colors are fantastic, and the map is a fabulous collectible for New York City history lovers. The map has been folded so the folds are visible. There are no tears, rips, or discolorations. It is 33" X 33" in size.
