#Vintage Ocean Highway

Here for your selection are some wonderful vintage road maps from the 1970's. They are in varying condition. I have tried to make note of any condition issues I see. (If you are looking for another area please feel free to message me as I have many more maps from the 1970's- 1990's that are not listed yet.) North Central- has pen/marker marks. Discored tape mark and usually creasing and yellowing of age. Chicago and vicinity- I don't see any marks on this on just the usual wear/ tiny tears to the folds. Ohio- don't see any pen marks. Does have some tearing on the folds and some yellowing. Chicago street map- don't see any pen marks. Does have some tearing on the folds and some yellowing. Minnesota- don't see any pen marks. Does have some tearing on the folds and some yellowing. Illinois
