Sobre este artículo
Boston : Daniel K. Wallingford, 1939. Loose Leaf. Like New. Original print. Third issue, 1939 with the World's Fair, 1939 on Long Island. Uncolored. Mostly clean and unmarked. Far left and bottom. edge has a hint of tanning. <br><BR>This black and white poster is a reprint of a satirical map of the United States by Daniel K. Wallingford. The map represents a "composite of New Yorkers' ideas concerning the rest of the United States." The U.S. is reimagined through the collective and biased perspective of New Yorkers who lack interest in the rest of America, since New York is described as a unique "nation within a NATION" and it is drawn in a much larger and disproportional scale than the other de-emphasized states, which are often labeled and described incorrectly. For example, on the map, Minneapolis and Indianapolis are situated in Michigan and listed as The Twin Cities. California has become three separate states, San Francisco, California, and Hollywood, complete with a small figure of a movie director shouting orders in the State of Hollywood. This map is surrounded by an ocean dotted with small ships, and the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, and a Fifth Avenue Coach bus are depicted in small boxes on the margins beneath New York State.<br> Wallingford map was first published by The Columbia University Press for the 1936 Times Book Fair and later again for the 1937 fair. This issue was reprinted in 1939 in connection with the New York World's Fair
