Ruth Taylor White's charming pictorial maps are among the most popular collectible maps of the early 20th century. These whimsical maps, often known as cartographs, combine graphic style, color and comical observation and are drawn in the same style of Jo Mora's celebrated work of the same period. In this map, the entire chain of Hawaiian Islands is depicted and decorated with cartoonish characters, with major roads and points of interest noted. Decorated by a large ribbon-style banner cartouche, quoting Mark Twain, that states "The loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean."
