About This Item

Chicago: Rand McNally & American Hotel Register Co., 1938. First edition of this merging of two American atlases. Folio (10 1/2 x 16 inches). The Rand McNally section is pp. 1-52 at the beginning and pp. 52-105 at the end. All maps printed in blue and red. The Leahy section starts in the middle and runs from p. 1 to p. 112 and with two more pages. These maps are entirely printed in black and much of the section is take up with listing for hotels in various states. Publisher's green cloth with gilt cover lettering [Leahy's]. The text block was originally stapled into the covers but has since come loose from the staples but the text block is entirely secure. A very good copy of an unusual publication. As both companies were headquartered in Chicago it is easy to imagine a friendly lunch at which this was discussed.
