Description
This worldwide route map shows the lines of Pan American Airways in operation across the globe during the mid-1960s. Details are limited to stopover points, pictorial topography, and a border showing latitude, longitude, and time zone information. Distances between points are noted in miles and kilometers, though only a few of the routes show the distinctive arc resulting from flying along a curve.
The map was originally designed by John Philip and copywritten by Pan American Airways in 1956, shortly before the introduction of the Boeing 707 inaugurated the jetliner age for the company. This example has been revised to March of 1966. Several contemporary push pins are included.
