Vintage illustrated map of New Zealand by A.D. Baldwin - 1961

This colorful pictorial map, titled "UBD Pictorial Map - New Zealand Scenes," offers a vibrant, touristic vision of New Zealand in the early 1960s. At its center, a detailed geographical map of the country shows the main cities and regions of the North and South Islands. The map's border is richly decorated with diverse illustrations celebrating New Zealand culture and landscapes: skiers in action on snow-covered peaks, a canoe on a river, a native bird, and representations of Māori culture, including a carved figure and a woman in traditional dress. The composition also incorporates contemporary elements such as a small tourist plane and the Auckland Harbour Bridge. Published by A.D. Baldwin for Universal Business Directories Ltd., this work served as promotional material, as evidenced by the large white border intended for an advertising sticker. The map measures approximately 50 cm by 37 cm.
