Description
Major hydroelectric projects totally transformed the landscape of the Ozark Mountains during the 20th century; creating numerous dams, reservoirs, and controlled waterways that facilitated a burst of industrial and recreational enthusiasm. This map shows the Twin Lakes and White River areas in northwestern Arkansas, featuring two large artificial bodies of water.
The solid, almost uncanny, blue waters of Lake Bull Shoals and Lake Norfork make a striking visual statement, surrounded by the verdant green forests of the Ozark Mountains. Towns, transportation routes, geographic features, and boating access points are labeled throughout the image. Numerous local advertisements are printed on the verso.
The image, signed Stewart in the lower right, was copyrighted in 1967 by the Ayers Advertising Agency of Harrison, Arkansas. Published in several editions, this one dated 1971-1972 on the front panel. Lithographed by MWM Color Press of Aurora, Missouri.
