Palm Spring Souvenir Map and Guide

“Sunny Greetings from Palm Springs!”

“National publicity pictures Palm Springs as a playground for the wealthy and famous, where celebrities chose to live. However, a million-plus visitors annually flock to this glittering gem in the desert. The reason for it can all be summed up in one word – “Climate!” – Text, verso.

This charming promotional map of Palm Springs, California was compiled by Ken and Ruth Du Maurier and published locally by The Palm Springs Map Guide in 1975. A two-toned street plan is accompanied by dozens of advertisements for local businesses, a street index, and several lists of attractions and amenities. Dozens of celebrity homes are located, including Elvis Presley, Truman Capote, Bob Hope, and Frank Sinatra.
