This detailed street map of the San Fernando Valley was published with compliments of the Security-First National Bank of Los Angeles. It extends from Burbank and North Hollywood to the north and west including Van Nuys, San Fernando, and Chatsworth. "Main" automobile roads are shown in red overprinting with small red circles locating bank branches in the area. A street index flanks the map at left and bottom, and the verso features an attractive bird's-eye "Motor Map of Southern California" and three small city maps. Self-folding (3.7 x 8.6"). We found no past sales records and no examples of the 1929 edition on OCLC.
