Hysterical Map Of The Grand Canyon National Park 1940
Just the name alone is enough to make you smile!
If you’re looking for a colourful, nostalgic escape then these framed reproduction prints are the answer. They look amazing grouped together too…a never-ending journey.
Mention “Hysterical Map” and most aficionados and collectors of early 20th century pictorial maps will invariably think of Lindgren Bros of Spokane, Washington, USA, who became synonymous with this light-hearted and amusing style of pictorial cartography in the period between 1933 and 1935.
With the cock’eyed inaccuracies, guaranteed smileage, and easy affordability the maps offered an immediate appeal to the newly mobile, middle-class, automobile driving tourist, increasingly eager to explore the natural wonders and out door beauty of the American West. Usually offered for $.25 with an accompanying envelope, they could be sent to friends, colleagues and relatives as a small token gift or retained by the buyer and kept as souvenirs of their cherished vacation times.
