The sporting life in Nebraska.
This is a charming c. 1939 Carl J. Christiansen pictorial map of Nebraska issued by the 'Game Forestation and Parks Commission' to promote outdoor life in Nebraska. State parks, national forests, and game reserves are highlighted throughout. Sportsmen, local monuments, images of flora and fauna, and more are illustrated in vignette form. On the verso, there is a wealth of information about Nebraska, Nebraska's state parks, and opportunities for exploring the great outdoors.Publication History and Census
