Description: This vintage lot showcases Virginia in several ways including road maps, pictorial maps, George Washington trail maps, and a historic booklet combined with large map of Virginia. The oldest piece is the combination soft-cover brochure and map titled Virginia The Beckoning Land. The outer cover is not in great shape but the interior booklet is in very good condition. The map appears to have been pinned up so has pin-holes in corners and some holes in the area of the center folds throughout. This was produced by the State Commission on Conservation and Development in Richmond Virginia. This is a soft-cover, third-edition piece. There is a 40 page fold out brochure that unfolds to approximately 9 inches x 12 inches. This was published as a promotional piece to highlight Virginia's attractions and history as well as a map of the state. The back pocket includes a huge color map of Virginia that measures 24 1/4 x 45 inches and is called "Virginia Showing the Geography and Physical Features of the State." Also included in the lot: A 1970 map of Virginia that features both a state map with highways and roads and communities on one side and a beautiful pictorial map with illustrations and photographs of Virginia on the reverse. This map measures 25 inches by 37 1/4 inches. The maps corners have some folding but it is intact and appears minor. A 1973 map of Virginia with a state map featuring roads and travel corridors with a fantastic picture map on the reverse with attractions and historic sites illustrated on a pictorial map along with photos of the state. This map measures 25 1/4 inches by 36 1/2 inches. The 1973 map has one corner with a fold. Two George Washington Trail Maps that include Virginia as well as Washington DC, Pennsylvania, and more.

Note that these have some minor holes in one location at a fold and some edge wear on the covers. One has a folded corner. Sold as-is.
