Description
The 1959 Pan-American Games were held in Chicago between August and September, with 166 separate events across 18 different sports. This map was issued to promote the games, as well as the department stores of Carson Pirie Scott that served the greater Chicagoland area – likely the source of inspiration for the groan-worthy ‘Carsonland’ pun.
A schedule and list of events is provided along the bottom of the sheet, with venues located across the region.
