Double-sided foldout road map of Mississippi. Ex-library copy per presence of two unobtrusive library stamps on text side. Total of 16 panels per side. Approximate unfolded dimensions: H 18 inches x L 28.25 inches. Several short tears and minor chips; map no longer adheres to original fold lines as several are displaced by extraneous creasing. Full-length color state map on verso showing paved and unpaved state highways (in the FAP - Federal-aid primary highway system and FAS - Federal-aid secondary highway system), county borders, cities and towns, etc. Legend key includes a symbol for federal interstate routes but none are demarcated. Legend does include a list of state parks including a "Negro only" park near Grenada. Map title provides date of January 1, 1958 so presumably published within the same year. Text side features some color photographs and other illustrations accompanying blurbs regarding state history, agriculture, industry, mileage table, etc.
