Condizione: Very Good. Cartography by General Drafting Co., New York. (illustratore). The boating map that sold Florida before Disney Large-format illustrated cruising chart produced by Standard Oil during the postwar leisure-boating boom, covering the Intracoastal Waterway and Gulf Coast routes from Savannah through Florida to New Orleans. Designed as both a functional navigation aid and a promotional travel object, the chart blends precise coastal cartography with pictorial lighthouse vignettes and regional landmarks, making it equally appealing to navigators and collectors of mid-century American ephemera. Physical description: Single large double-sided printed sheet, folded as issued, multiple-color offset lithography on thin stock, nautical soundings, route lines, compass roses, lighthouse and harbor illustrations, key map and legend panels, Standard Oil branding and General Drafting imprint present, approximate unfolded size large-format, exact measurements to be supplied. Condition: Paper is clean and supple with light, even age toning, original folds intact, minor handling wear at fold intersections, no losses, no tape repairs, graphics remain sharp and legible throughout, folds remain sound, issued folding format restated. Scarcity note: Surviving examples are increasingly scarce in clean, complete condition, particularly double-sided sheets retaining strong color and intact folds, most examples encountered show heavier fold wear or staining. The Southern Cruising Guide reflects the moment when recreational boating became accessible to middle-class Americans, supported by improved waterways, standardized navigation aids, and the rise of automobile and petroleum-sponsored tourism. General Drafting's crisp cartography is softened by charming illustrative elements that turn functional navigation into visual storytelling. The chart reads as both a working tool and a piece of Americana, merging maritime precision with aspirational travel culture. Historical significance Issued as part of Standard Oil's broader travel and mobility outreach, the chart illustrates how petroleum companies positioned themselves as partners in leisure and exploration, not merely fuel suppliers. It documents the growth of Florida and Gulf Coast boating infrastructure just prior to the massive postwar development boom, making it a valuable artifact for maritime, regional, and advertising history. Subjects: Intracoastal Waterway, Florida Gulf Coast, Recreational boating history, Maritime navigation, Petroleum advertising, Mid-century American design Maps and charts, Printed ephemera, Nautical material Single-sheet, double-sided folding nautical chart.

3 folding maps, roughly in the form of folding road maps printed on both sides, published for Esso. All three maps are in fine condition, with two short tears at edges. All three maps promote Esso oil products by featuring the role of oil products in transportation logistics. The first piece has a map of the world showing transport routes. The second piece has a map of the world on one side, Europe on the other. The text mentions a book published in 1943, but the lack of any emphasis on France suggests that this was issued before June 6, 1944. The third map features the Pacific Theater of War, with a large map of the western Pacific Ocean and a more detailed map of the area around Japan. There are many inset maps of islands in the western Pacific, but not including the Solomon Islands, indicating that this was issued well after the Guadalcanal Campaign.
