Gallup Historical Route Maps
Unfurling this stunning 1915 reproduction of a super-rare original pen and ink hand-drawn USA route and trail map transports you to a time when brave riders set-out across country in search of discoveries that lay around the next bend or over the next hill. This historical coast-to-coast map pre-dates the numbered highway system, and a detailed legend shows the classic route markers and signage used during this time of our nation's emerging system of connecting roadways. On the other side is a national roadmap from 1931 showing the transition from locally "named" roads to the beginnings of today's modern and more orderly numbering system. A fascinating full-color dual-sided map, beautifully reproduced down to the most intricate details. It's a frameable piece of early motorway history that looks stunning on the wall, and will fill any rider's soul with the wander-lust to locate and ride the historic sections of these old roads that still exist today. (Finding them amongst the tangled web of modern roads can be a real adventure...) Heavy stock with fade-resistant ink. 38"x26".
