Official Highway Service Map Issued by Arkansas State Highway Commission

The highways of Arkansas during the late 1930s.

This is the ‘official’ 1938 edition of the Arkansas Highway Map, prepared by the State Highway Commission and lithographed in Little Rock by The Democrat Printing & Lithograph Company. A matrix of four styles of lines in two different colors is used to delineate the various types and surfaces of roads across The Natural State. National Forests and state borders are highlighted in verdant green. Panels of adjacent text identify points of interest, state parks, the rules of the road, and cities and towns. Numerous captioned photographs and additional promotional information are provided on the verso.
