A detailed street map of the city compiled by W.S. Parks and published by the Western Map Company. Concentric circles radiate from downtown and extend to Culver City, Beverly Hills, Pasadena and Alhambra. Numerous local advertisements surround the map. The verso contains additional advertisements, a comprehensive street index, and a section of "facts and figures" with data as of 1937. We found no auction records or dealer listings in the last 30 years and no institutional examples located on OCLC.
