Pictorial Map Promoting The 1932 Los Angeles Olympics

The map includes a detailed map of th "Los Angeles County" at the center, with sections of the east and west coast on either side.  The main map is arrayed with whimsical vignettes of Los Angeles landmarks, athletes and Olympic venues, with Mt. Lowe, Mt. Baldy and Mt. Wilson on the horizon.

In the top corners, visitors from Mars and Saturn are shown, along with an image of the Goodyear (Akron) blimp.
