The map depicts Great Northern's developed network of Glacier Park hotels and chalets, including Many Glacier Hotel and Granite Park Chalet, both completed in 1915, while the form of the railroad's distinctive mountain-goat emblem is consistent with branding adopted in the early 1920s. The illustrated touring bus provides another useful clue, as this model began to be replaced in 1925, while the Prince of Wales Hotel, opened in 1927, is notably absent. Taken together, these details strongly support an early-to-mid 1920s date for this particular edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New World Cartographic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43474672353341,"sku":"13360","price":375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0390\/9705\/files\/13360a.jpg?v=1786735460"},{"product_id":"official-atlantic-coastal-highway-association-map-1929","title":"1929 Official Atlantic Coastal Highway Association Map from Calais, Maine, to Key West, Florida","description":"\u003cp\u003eA remarkable survivor from the golden age of American automobile tourism, when improved roads made automobile touring increasingly practical and popular.

Drawn by C. M.
