This unusual pictorial map was created for Railway Express Agency, Inc., who represent "the AIRLINES of the United States." Introductory text on verso states "this is probably a different kind of map you never saw before. It doesn’t show you how to go anywhere. It isn’t even a map of any real town.” Instead, it presents a fictional town with the many ways air express can help businesses and residents. Benefits to local business are described in detail with headers including "Meeting and Beating Deadlines," "World Trader - By Air," "Relief For Printer Pressure" and more. Self-folding into pictorial wrappers (4.0 x 8.9"). We found only three locations for this map on OCLC.
