The Good Life - Florida.

A charming 1954 pictorial map of Florida issued by John Nathan Mayo (1876 - 1960), Florida Commissioner of Agriculture from 1923 to 1960. The map promotes emigration to Florida, advertising the state's 'no tax' policies, warm weather, and sunshine. Maps are printed on both sides. The primary map features rich pictorial content emphasizing Florida's flora, fauna, and agricultural potential. The verso map features highway data, populations tables, and a milage chart.
