Vintage large-format fold-out 1942 Texaco road map of New York and Pennsylvania, printed more than 78 years ago.

  • The map opens to 24" x 32" and has great detail on old highway alignments, with cartography by Rand McNally.


  • The map of New York is on one side, with an inset of Long Island.


  • Pennsylvania is on the other side, with an inset of New Jersey.


  • The map was published by Texaco in 1942 and is dated by the code number in the lower margin: X.4216. Population data is from the 1940 census, and the gasoline tax rates are shown as of May 2, 1942.


  • The front cover has the code A-42 and the wartime message: "Paper is Precious! Please do not throw this map away."


  • Condition:  The map is in very good, lightly used condition. There's a neat rubber-stamp imprint from a Texaco garage in Weatherly, Pennsylvania, and a couple of tiny chips have been mended with archival tape. Please see the scans and feel free to ask any questions.
