Description
This is a rare 1933 Jo Mora pictorial map of Central America commissioned by the Grace Line to celebrate and advertise its newly-launched passenger service from New York City to Seattle via the Panama Canal. Focused on Central America, the map depicts North, Central, and South America and focuses on ports of call of the Grace Line. The whole map is dedicated to the memory of the Spanish Main, which is referred to as the cradle of our Western Civilization . Mora also includes a disclaimer of sorts just below this dedication, stating
The informative intent of this carte is Historical and Topographical yet it is rendered in the manner humorous that its perusal may be accomplished rather with the smile of levity than the frown of research.
