On the Road!

The American myth would not be the same without a road that stretches to infinity, without a shabby motel bordering a lost highway, without a fast-food restaurant visible from 3 miles away thanks to its neon lights piercing the night. I wanted to dedicate this collection to American road maps from the 40s to the 70s because they are evocative of an America that is at once empty, immense and in full swing. Do not hesitate to explore my antique maps of the United States, my antique maps of South America or even North America !
