1936 CONOCO Continental Oil Road Map ARIZONA Route 66 Phoenix Petrified Forest
Vintage fold-out Conoco road map of Arizona, printed more than 79 years ago.
The map opens to 24" x 18" and has great detail on old highway alignments, including U.S. Route 66, with cartography by H.M. Gousha.
The only paved highway across the state was Route 70, which had previously been labeled U.S. 180. Portions of U.S. 60, 66, and 80 were still gravel at the time this map was printed. A long section of Route 60 north of Fort Apache Indian Reservation is marked on the map as "Impassable."
On the reverse side there are maps of Zion and Grand Canyon National Parks, Petrified Forest National Monument, Phoenix, and Tucson.
This map was distributed in 1936 by the Continental Oil Company of Denver to promote its Conoco brand. It is dated by the code number in the lower margin: 12-J. It uses small triangles to locate Conoco service stations throughout the state.
