Description

This eye-catching pictorial map was drawn by Erik Nitsche and published in a 1939 issue of LIFE Magazine. The image highlights the nation’s robust natural resources, varied geography, and incredible industrial diversity.

Oil derricks in Texas, fields of wheat in the Great Plains, and manufacturing plants across New England are just a few examples of the prewar prosperity enjoyed by the United States. An awesome image of American unity that foregoes state borders in favor of a presentation of cohesion and solidarity.
