PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Beautiful wooden puzzle of a Vintage pictorial map of the Monterey Bay Region in California, featuring cities, landmarks, cultural elements, and historical references. Illustrated cartography showcasing the diverse attractions and heritage of this coastal area.
This vintage pictorial map of the Monterey Bay Region in California offers a charming and whimsical overview of the area's attractions and character. From the bustling wharves of Monterey to the artistic enclave of Carmel and the agricultural heartland of Salinas, the map highlights the region's diverse offerings. Illustrations of local industries, landmarks, and historical figures (like connections to John Steinbeck implied visually) add to the map's appeal. This beautifully crafted map evokes a sense of nostalgia, inviting viewers to explore the beauty and history of this iconic stretch of the California coast.
Here are the highlights we love in this puzzle: Santa Cruz, Monterey, Carmel, Salinas, Watsonville, agriculture (lettuce, artichokes, etc. implied), fishing, John Steinbeck (Cannery Row implied), 17-Mile Drive, missions, Spanish influence, Highway 1, border (Pacific Ocean, smaller counties), compass rose, decorative border, illustrations of people, animals, and activities related to the region.
These vintage illustrations from the 1930s feature stereotypical representations that may be offensive. We appreciate Ruth Taylor's work for its historical significance, illustrating key aspects of each state, such as corn farming, mule rearing, crabbing, horse racing, filmmaking, sailing, Native American culture, and national parks. These prints originate from the post-Golden Age during the Great Depression. Artwork by Ruth Taylor (1900).
