Description

Scarce Treasure map of the American Southwest, "Based on Historic Fact and Quotation", published by Treasurama of North Hollywood, California.

The map consists of a pictorial map surrounded by vignettes of the west, along with a legend that describes 46 famous lost treasures.

In the body of the map, the location of each of the 46 treasures is marked with a pick and shovel.

Three inset maps show similar treasure maps for Texas, the West Coast of Mexico and the Lost Mines of the Superstition Mountains, with 7 more legendary treasures referenced and located.

A marvelous blend of illustration and anecdote describing lost treasures of the American Southwest.

Topographic survey map of the area around Bishop, California to just north of Owens Lake, with parts of Inyo, Sierra, and Sequoia National Forests, Bishop Tuff (Volcanic Tableland), and Bishop Reservation shown. Marshes, indicated by blue symbols, dot the Owens River Valley north of Klondike Lake. The area was surveyed in 1910 and 1911, a time when it became entangled in the building of the Los Angeles Aqueduct, leading to the "water wars" of the 1920s, the inspiration for the film Chinatown. Tinemaha Reservoir, part of William Mulholland's original plan for the aqueduct, was built in 1927-1929 near Fish Springs.
