This early map of Miami was produced by Karl Squires. It shows excellent detail of both Miami and Miami Beach with a legend at bottom identifying streets, railroads, canals, schools, parks, and the city boundaries. Locates the Miami Country Club, airport, civic center, docks, and a "blimp base" to name a few. The verso contains a comprehensive street index for Miami, Miami Beach, and Coral Gables. Folds into orange pictorial wrappers with "Price 25 Cents." We found no examples for this edition of the map in OCLC.
