Item description from seller

Average. Repaired on verso and backed on archival tissue for stability. Size 24 x 19 Inches. This is a striking 1937 map or plan of Washington, D.C. by the Foster and Reynolds Company of New York. It covers Washington D.C. from the Arlington National Cemetery and Georgetown College eastward as far as 28th Street and the Congressional Cemetery and from the Soldiers' Home grounds to the Anacostia River and the War College (southern tip of Washington, D.C.). The map is exceptionally detailed, noting important buildings, monuments, streets, parks, railroads and an assortment of other topographical details. Other sites of note are the United States Navy Yard, Howard University, and the Zoological Park. The National Mall is also referred to as 'The Mall'. The city is divided in four sections marked N.W., S.W., S.E. and N.E. by lines emanating from the Capitol Building. A 'Ready Reference Index' is set in the upper right quadrant. Two short paragraphs in the lower left quadrant detail the geographical divisions of streets and a note on how to use this map. This map was first copyrighted in 1915 and went through numerous subsequent editions. The map was engraved by the Matthews-Northrup Co., makers of the Century Atlas , and was published by the Foster and Reynolds Company, Washington, D. C.
