Description:
|
|
Vintage city plan of Denver issued by the Denver Board of Realtors to attract new residents to the city. Amenities such as schools and Safeway supermarkets are marked on the map. Concentric red circles show the distance from the city centre, "conveniently" located at the headquarters of the Board of Denver Realtors. On the back of the map is information about leisure activities and amenities in the city, as well as a map of scenic drives through the Rocky Mountains and a more detailed map of Downtown Denver. A charming example of a Mid-Century American marketing map.
