This rare and charming pictorial map is a novel spin on the tired old "Get Well Soon" card from the Minneapolis-based greeting card company Buzza Company. The map shows the "State of Health" divided into various counties related to ailments and recovery, such as Headache County, Pill County, Heartbeat County, Pretty Nurse County, Frisky County, and, at the northernmost point of the state, Best of Health County. In each we see cute cartoon bears as they pass through the various stages of being sick: a bloated bear glugs a jug of castor oil in Flushing County; a bear snoozes at ease on the operating table in Numb County; a newly healthy bear hoists a ton over his head with just one arm to the west of Complete Recovery Lake. On verso is an illustration of a bear chucking a bottle of pills and a crutch into Big Improvement Lake. Self-folding into illustrated wrappers with a bandaged bear in a wheelchair (3.6 x 6.6").
