Description: 1934 Official Centennial Map of Texas by Guy F. Cahoon Curtiss Pruett Original Date: 1934 Artist: Cahoon, Guy F. Size (in): 35” x 24” Size (cm): 86.4 x 61 Condition: A- Linen backed: No This vintage original pictorial map titled Official Centennial Map of Texas was created in 1934 by the artist Guy F. Cahoon for the Texas Centennial celebrations. The Texas Centennial celebrations officially begin in 1936 but merchandise and souvenirs commemorating 100 years of Texas Independence begin to appear a year to two in advance due to the great public interest in the event. This map is elaborately illustrated with colorful icons showing sites of historical interest, important routes and trails, native flora and fauna and other points of interest with portraits of nine important figures in Texas history forming a border. Guy F. Cahoon’s name is signed in print near the lower right corner and the map is also printed “Conceived by Charles Pruett”. The lower margin indicates “Lithographed by Utter & Evans, Inc. Texas” and “Produced, Published and Copyrighted By C.M. Burnett – Texas”. This vintage original map was also issued in a slightly smaller folded version with covers. This example here is the never folded poster version of the map issued in advance of the official Texas Centennial celebrations. This map is in excellent condition with no tape or pinholes and only slight handling wear including faint creasing along the right margin not affecting the image area of the map. Overall condition is excellent. Payment Terms Winning bidders will receive an email at the end of the auction explaining the option for paying with PayPal or mailing payment.
