c1950 NEW YORK CITY MANHATTAN ISLAND PICTORIAL MAP SILKSCREEN LINEN PLACEMAT
This is really a wonderful original. I recently acquired the collection of a small vacation store named "The Crawfords" in Jamestown Rhode Island that was open from the mid 1940s to the mid 1950s. I am not sure what they sold besides these type things, but the main part of the collection I purchased was a grouping of these wonderful kitschy pictorial maps on linen placemats. There were a few letters in the collection that included explanations about the orders of the silkscreens from a Boston company as well as the printing process. This is one of my favorites from the collection. Measuring about 12 x 17 inches it is a great view of c1950 Manhattan New York. Wonderful little images of the Statue of Liberty, LaGuardia Field, Radio City, Washington Square, Central Park, Yankee Stadium and more. Placemat is a cream linen with fringe and it is printed in green ink. Overall excellent condition. A few minor spots to the linen but really quite clean, particularly for being about 70+ years old. A few other wrinkles to the linen but really a great map. If you like the look of these, I have quite a few other locations including vacation places like LBI, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, Block Island, White Mountains, Lakes of Maine, and much more. I also have other states around the country and other cities as well.
