Puzzle New York

“A map of the wondrous isle of Manhattan” is a pictorial map designed by Charles Vernon Farrow in 1926. The image is almost a bird’s eye view of the island showing an irreal city. Indeed, the map is an artistic and pictorial view instead of a technical view. The author used vibrant colors, labels and detailed graphical information, to represent what should have been the effervescent atmosphere of the 1920s in the city, a few years before the Great Depression that started in October 1929 with the Wall Street crash.
