Pub Title:
The Scenic Columbia River through the Cascade Mountains to the Pacific.
Pub Note:
Date estimated. Full color. Brochure. Oregon artist and cartographer Fred A. Routledge was especially noted for his pictorial bird's eye views dominated by the natural landscape and making a vision of the world that, prior to generally available air travel, could not be experienced in life. His prizes included a first prize at the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition in San Francisco. The quality of his pictorial map was to become a significant feature of commercial travel cartography in the 1930s and beyond. (Clinton, Craig.)
