{"product_id":"south-carolina-map-1935-pictorial-print-columbia-charleston-greenville","title":"South Carolina Map 1935 Pictorial Print - Columbia, Charleston, Greenville","description":"\u003cp\u003eRuth Taylor White drew this pictorial map of South Carolina for Our U.S.A., A Gay Geography, a whimsical cartoon atlas published by Little, Brown, and Company in 1935 with text by Frank J. Taylor, covering all 48 states in fifty-eight full-color illustrated sheets. This sheet appears on page 93 of the atlas, printed in bright lithographed color and filled with small hand-drawn scenes rather than any conventional survey detail, a style built to entertain a Depression-era audience as much as inform it. South Carolina is shown here through its agriculture, industry, and coastal recreation, the identities that most defined the state's popular image in the 1930s. Ruth Taylor White and Frank Taylor built the atlas as a joint effort, her illustrations paired with his short, wry captions, and the finished sheets sold well enough during the Depression that Little, Brown kept the title in print for several years after its first release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCotton fields, peanut farming, and tomato crops are all illustrated prominently, emphasizing the state's continued agricultural base through the Depression era. Textile mills are marked as well, reflecting South Carolina's growing manufacturing sector alongside its farming. Fishing and boating scenes appear along the coastline and its waterways, representing the recreational and commercial use of the state's rivers and harbors. Together the cotton and peanut fields, the textile mills, and the coastal scenes sketch a South Carolina balanced between its farm economy, its newer industry, and its waterways. A handful of smaller mill towns are sketched into the Piedmont region as well, each tied to its own textile specialty that fed South Carolina's growing manufacturing base alongside its older farm economy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA South Carolina family with roots in the cotton counties or the coastal lowcountry will recognize this map's take on the state immediately, and it makes a distinctive gift for anyone who prefers a whimsical, Depression-era view of South Carolina to a conventional antique survey. The store's other South Carolina editions include Bradford's 1838 sheet and several Cram and Asher \u0026amp; Adams printings, all standard survey-style cartography; this 1935 Little, Brown sheet is the only pictorial, cartoon-style map of the state the collection carries. It's printed unframed and available in a range of sizes to fit whatever wall it's headed for.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754175307,"sku":"1547-16x20","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754208075,"sku":"1547-A2","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754240843,"sku":"1547-18x24","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754273611,"sku":"1547-50x70","price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754306379,"sku":"1547-A1","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754339147,"sku":"1547-24x32","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754371915,"sku":"1547-70x100","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754404683,"sku":"1547-75x100","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58514754437451,"sku":"1547-A0","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU1547.jpg?v=1789683673","url":"https:\/\/www.themapvault.com\/en-us\/products\/south-carolina-map-1935-pictorial-print-columbia-charleston-greenville","provider":"TheMapVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
