This information-packed map was created by the National Highways Association, an early and effective advocate for the nation's highway system. It presents the evolving highway network with a legend identifying "park to park highways," transcontinental highways, Automobile Club of America "Associated Tours" roads, and other highways. Shaded areas further indicate Indian Reservations, National Forests, National Irrigation Projects, and National Parks and Monuments. This is the 10th edition of this map and was published in conjunction with "Good Roads Week," sponsored by the American Road Builders' Association. Surrounding the map are various arguments and slogans for government-backed roads including: "A Paved Untied States in Our Day"; "National Highways and Good Roads Everywhere"; and "A System of 250,000 Miles of National Highways...To Be Built and Forever Maintained by the United States Government."
