Bowen & Co., Indianapolia, 1917, a copy of the title page is included. It is a rare map that is not often found from the early days of the automobile industry when Ford's Model T ruled the roads. Several state and federal programs were created from 1915-1917 for the improvement of the highway system turning the early auto trails into more improved state and county highways, improved roads are shown in red on the map. Snow removal would began in 1918. The map is is not matted nor framed, being sold as a single sheet as shown in the main pic photographed against a dark background. Overall, a nice small size map that would frame up economically, a great gift for the classic auto enthusiast. Condition: The map is in Very Good or better condition for its age. There is a spot of light browning in the upper left corner, otherwise it is very clean, with a strong impression and bright color. There is also a similar map on reverse of another county. The pics are of the actual map.Size: The entire page measures approximately 6 by 9 inches (15x23cm) Shipping: We only charge one nominal shipping fee and do combine additional maps at no extra costs and gladly refund extra shipping when purchased individually and shipped together. For multiple purchases it is best to use the ebay cart system which will automatically calculate the correct shipping when multiple maps are purchased at once and there is free US domestic shipping on 5 or more maps. International rates apply elsewhere. The map is placed in a plastic sleeve for easy viewing. International Shipping: We ship insured through the ebay International shipping program. Due to insurance reasons we do not ship to International PO boxes, third party addresses nor countries that ebay does not ship to. We can only ship to the ebay address used at the time of purchase. For multiple items international buyers need to use the ebay cart to save extra shipping fees, since ebay no longer allows us to combine individual orders into one shipment, each order has to be shipped to the ebay international hub individually. This only applies to international orders, US domestic orders we can still easily combine when purchased separately, since we are shipping directly through USPS. International Customs and VAT Fees: It is the responsibility of the buyer to pay all Customs Taxes, VAT or other fees that may be due upon arrival or throuh ebay. These fees vary greatly from country to country and ebay policy is that the buyer is responsible for their country's taxes and fees. Please consult your country's Customs Regulations for more details on your country. Fortunately, printed matter over 100 years old is often duty free in many countries. Satisfaction Guaranteed: We stand fully behind our products and offer a full refund minus shipping with no questions asked.
