Prima edizione
One large oblong atlas folio pictorial map sized 29.5 x 22 in., beautiful original lithograph cover, very minor dustsoiling, and slight creasing to fore-edges, a NF copy. First edition of this splendid pictorial map featuring pictograph cartoons reminiscent of John Held's Jazz Age artwork, as well as Ruth Taylor White, and her sister Della Taylor Hoss. The Alaska Line which had benefited from a near monopoly of passenger and freight service to Alaska after the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 brags about their accommodations, service, easy access and tours to many scenic areas in and around "America's last frontier." Later printings have an altered colour scheme from this one featuring Alaska in gold, and the Yukon and British Columbia, Canada in pink. Camy (1904-1958) was a California artist, and illustrator who specialized in commercial graphic advertising for Dole Pineapple, Signal Gasoline, and the Alaska Line. He produced very few pictographic maps.
