C. 1940
Hand-colored Print
This antique map of Georgia depicts the several cities, counties, railroads and districts. The back of this map shows the retail sales in 1939. One thing that distinguishes this map from others is the very warm color palette used. Each city and district is meticulously drawn, the names written in writing that is refined and well-organized. Railroads crisscross the state like lifelines, connecting bustling urban centers with sleepy, rural towns. These railways are marked with delicate, dashed lines that guide the eye across the map, hinting at the journeys and stories that unfolded along these routes. The warm hues and intricate details make this antique map not just a navigational tool, but a piece of art. It invites viewers to explore and imagine the lives of those who walked the streets of these cities, traveled these railroads, and contributed to the vibrant tapestry of Georgia's history.
