Always nice to have a visitor in the shop! This beauty of a wall-hanger #map is on loan from Dr. Jörn Seeman at the @ballstateuniversity Department of #Grography. From Nystrom in Chicago, this “Physical-Political” map of #Indiana dates to approximately the 1910s-30s, includes classified hypsometric relief colors, glaciation limits, county boundaries and county seats, and... oddly, rail lines, differentiated between steam and electric. Searches for further info about this one haven’t turned up much (@emmie_elle, you may have better ideas where to search? I’m mostly looking for a year and deduction clues are limited on this one). It’s a little brittle and discolored on the edges, but it’s still a beaut! #Muncie #indiana #oldmap #wallmap #historicmap #antiquemap #mapdecor via Instagram ift.tt/2IODciE
