Published by Golden Books from 1961 to 1965, this is one of four books in a slip-cover set designed to excite families about the joys that awaited them in the World of Walt Disney.
The books included: Fantasyland, Nature, America, and Stories from Other Lands. I found this copy of the Fantasyland book for $4 at my Friends of the Library Bookstore. Boxed sets on eBay run about $30 on the lower end.
I like the old-school feel of the illustrations--this is the Disney I grew up with.
Snoqualmie Pass Region
Drawn from U.S.F.S. and U.S. Geological Survey Maps by H. V. Strandberg & H. R. Morgan.
November 1931
Interesting things about this map:
1) Alaska Lake was called Lake Gingerless
2) Lots of trail routes in Commonwealth Basin up to Lundin, Red and Kendall
3) The west tunnel entrance at Rockdale shows several structures
4) Mountaineers Snoqualmie Lodge by Lodge Lake, with trail straight up from the highway
5) Trail directly up ridge west of Rocky Run (since destroyed by logging)
6) Rampart Lakes not noted
7) "The Dome" by Snoqualmie Mtn is named
8) Bryant Peak is very close to Chair. Current Bryant Peak is where Hemlock Peak is on this map
9) Snow Lake trail goes by Source Lake
10) Trail down the Pratt Valley is west of the river, not along the future RR grade east of the river.
11) The Tooth is accessed from the Denny Creek side
12) Wright Mountain is attached to a subpeak of Roosevelt, not to the high point north of Gem Lake where it is now. (Thanks Snutur!)
I claim no rights to this map and attribution to me is not required. It is not quite old enough to be public domain. Please reproduce the credits of the creators that are on the map.
This is a map of the sewers with their manholes as well as the gas and water mains running beneath Boylan Heights. The fire hydrants, of course, are aboveground.
Map of stations equipped with OMNY readers in June 2020 (including nine stations to be activated after June 4).
Alas, unfortunately I had forgotten to record what railway network this map represents. Judging on its use of grey and red, my guess is this shows part of the Virgin Trains network that centres the Midlands region of England.
Thanks to my Birmingham friend Ell, this is actually the rail network of CrossCountry Trains, an Arriva plc company.
We were at Peterborough Station (half way between Nottingham and Cambridge on the map) waiting for the train back to London King's X.

This post card was first photo in an album purchased by my father as a construction laborer on the Alaska Highway in 1943. The route shown here appears to be mostly in straight lines, almost a mockery of the many challenges of terrain and distances that highway construction workers actually encountered and surmounted. The Alaska Highway did not open to the public until 1948.

This is a great set of 3 wooden adult size clothes hangers. Each of these hangers measures 16 inches across the base and 4 1/2 inches tall including the hook. These hangers have swivel metal hooks and grip inserts on the top of each side to help prevent shirts from slipping off. They have been decoupaged with vintage maps on all sides (1948 map of Europe from an old Atlas I bought from BookSale).. Each one is fully glazed with a durable sumptuous glossy lacquer. The lacquer really brings out the color of the old maps beautifully. They would be great to hang outfits on or display.

* Điều em muốn nói . . .
Thượng đế sinh em ra là để giành cho anh . . .
Thượng đế biết ta sinh ra là để giành cho nhau :)

* Em yêu . . .
Em yêu vẻ đẹp trong mắt anh
Em yêu cách anh làm em cười
Em yêu anh lúc anh quan tâm - lo lắng cho em
Em yêu cả cách nói đáng yêu và hài hước của anh
Em yêu giọng nói nhẹ nhàng ấm áp mỗi khi anh thì thầm vào tai em
Em yêu một sự thật rằng em cũng sẽ không bao giờ quên được anh : )

First peek at the MAP's new finish. Photo from the powder coater. Blue tube in upper left is my pump. Black stem and decaleur are from another person's project.
I wonder what the areas on the map with even fewer dots than "Very Low" are supposed to signify.
From "Civilization," The World Book, 1920.
It appears that this map is from 1977. I couldn't find a typical print year on it, just a code that said 1/77, which is likely the print date. This map does show all the Amoco gas stations in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia at the time. The locations were few and far between though.
This map also had some interesting ads in it too some chains were represented by a certain number on the map. Others, such as Albert Pick Hotels, Holiday Inn, and Coachmen Recreational Vehicles were represented by their logo.
Here are some more maps and map images that I figured I would share to go along with the ones I posted before. I figured I would do these as a mass upload then go back to the more typical retail pictures I post.
The full road maps were way too large to fit into the scanner and I didn't want to risk damaging the maps so I mostly copied covers, advertisements, and certain city maps. I do want to figure out a decent way to photograph the full maps without harming them. All of these ones are larger than the Ohio Turnpike Map I posted before.
