The coastline is dotted with illustrations, including golf clubs, hunting and fishing grounds, Audubon painting birds, the Pirate House in Waveland, a Native American family by the Pascagoula River, Woodrow Wilson's "Dixie White House," and more. The map folds into a pamphlet, "For Health and Recreation - Great Southern Hotel Gulfport, Mississippi."
