Shubb, Richard 'Rick' (sold)

This is an iconic 1969 Earl Crabb and Rick Shubb map of the world. Celebrated for its place in the history of the West Coast folk scene and the hippie counterculture, the map depicts a world reimagined from this perspective. San Francisco, Berkeley, Los Angeles, New York City, and Cambridge dominate one large continent, with Southeast Asia, North Africa, and Boston making up the rest of this landmass. Places within these cities are illustrated and labeled as well, adding some detail to the map. In San Francisco, for example, Golden Gate Park and the intersection of Haight Street and Ashbury Street are included, as is San Francisco Bay. In New York City, Washington Square Park, Central Park, Tompkins Square Park, and Café Au Go Go are included, with Fire Island and Coney Island illustrated off the coast. Harlem, Chicago, and New Orleans are dots on the map. Southeast Asia, situated between San Francisco and Los Angeles, is illustrated as a round red splotch, a reference to the bloody completely incomprehensible war in Vietnam raging at the time, while the entire continent of Africa is situated between Cambridge and New York City.

An ocean surrounds this large Pangea of a landmass and is labeled as 'The Whelming Brine', 'The Farspooming Ocean', and 'The Wavy Waste'. A rubber duck, Neptune, and a sea monster occupy this vast expanse of water, as does an island known simply as 'Rest of the World Island' which houses Rome, London, Paris, Moscow, Bombay, Delhi, Liverpool, Copenhagen, and Singapore. An island shaped like the state of Tennessee and labeled 'Nashville' floats off the coast of New York City, probably a reference to Nashville as the home of country music. A whimsical compass in the lower right corner provides directions, 'Up', 'Down', 'Right', and 'Left' are the cardinal directions, while 'This Way', 'That Way', 'Hither', and 'Yon' are noted in between. The whole is surrounded by a border made up of hundreds of names of celebrities of every sort, including Arlo Guthrie, Timothy Leary, Ray Bradbury, L. Ron Hubbard, Norman Mailer, Paul McCartney, William Burroughs, Earl Scruggs, Aretha Franklin, J.R.R. Tolkein, Ken Kesey, and Stan Lee just to list a few. (more details)

This is an iconic 1970 Earl Crabb and Rick Shubb map of the world, the last of three different editions of Humbead's Revised Map of the World. Celebrated for its place in the history of the West Coast folk scene and the hippie counterculture, the map depicts a world reimagined from this perspective. Much like the 1969 edition, San Francisco, Berkeley, Los Angeles, New York City, and Cambridge dominate one large continent, with Southeast Asia, North Africa, and Boston making up the rest of this landmass. Places within these cities are illustrated and labeled as well, adding some detail to the map. In San Francisco, for example, Golden Gate Park is illustrated, and Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Santa Barbara, and Marin County are labeled. In New York City, Washington Square Park and Central Park, while Harlem, Chicago, and New Orleans are dots on the map. Southeast Asia is situated between San Francisco and Los Angeles, while the entire continent of Africa is situated between Cambridge and New York City. Nashville sits at the center of the continent, perhaps a reference to Crabb and Shubb's love of folk music.

This Pangea-esque continent is illustrated on a beige background meant to represent the ocean given that it is labeled as 'The Farspooming Ocean' and 'The Whelming Brine'. Gigantic scrolls of parchment are also illustrated underneath the continent and bear a list of over 1,300 names - the population to which the map's title refers. Among the celebrities references are Stanley Kubrick, Salvador Dali, Peter Cushing, Pablo Picasso, Stan Lee, and John Lennon. The whole is surrounded by a border that borders on the nightmarish. Fantastical beasts appear everywhere, psychedelically colored with numerous limbs, all reminiscent of the beasts described during the acid trips in Hunter S. Thompson's 1971 classic Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. In many ways the border defies explanation; it simply must be viewed to be appreciated. (more details)
