This is Humboldt County – California’s Coolest Redwood Camping and Recreational Area

Humboldt County Welcomes You!

“Humboldt County is a haven for photographers, nature lovers, rockhounds, beachcombers, with the climate the coolest in California.” Text, verso.

This vivacious pictorial map of Humboldt County was designed in the Eureka-based studio of Don Graham and published in 1965. It was designed as a mailer/souvenir and issued as a joint venture between the Humboldt County Court House and the Chamber of Commerce.

A simple, somewhat juvenile, overview of the county notes major transportation routes and the iconic redwood trees. Cartoonish vignettes flank each side, highlighting local wildlife, local attractions, and recreational opportunities. Description text and a map of the main traveled roads are presented on the verso.
