ANOTHER GREAT
An early 20th-century framed commercial advertising map, titled ‘BEST ROADS TO BEST TRADERS.’ The map is printed on paper and presented under glass within a dark-stained wooden frame featuring a gold inner border. The central cartographic element displays a detailed road map of the Yorkshire region of England, specifically highlighting areas such as Scarborough, Filey, and Bridlington. Surrounding the map are numerous period advertisements for local businesses, including garages, hotels, and various services. Some of these businesses note establishment dates from the late 19th century, while visible slogans such as ‘Pratts for Power!’ further suggest a production era of the 1920s-1940s.
