This is a 1947 Waldo Bemis pictorial fishing or angling map of the United States. Depicting the entire continental United States, Bemis uses shading to indicate the distribution of warm-water fish, cold-water fish, and areas where one could potentially find either warm- or cold-water fish. Red circles and stars with white numbers appear throughout, although the vast majority are along the coastlines. These indicate locations where record fish were caught of each of the fifty-three species of fish illustrated in the border. All these notations are explained in a key situated in the lower right quadrant. Vignettes of fishermen are included across the United States, all of whom are experiencing a different degree of success. Vignettes of fishing animals, such as otters, brown bears, seals, and wading birds, also add to this map's appeal. (more details)
