Saint Pierre Et Miquelon Vtg Reproduction 1960s Humorous Map Travel Poster 22X35

Description

You're bidding on "Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon" - a 22 1/2" X 35" humorous illustrated map of the sovereign French archipelago just off the southern tip of Newfoundland. The small island has a rich history, including being invaded and re-invaded by Britain and France throughout the 18th and early 19th centuries, a smuggler's haven during prohibition in the United States in the early 20th century, and being invaded and liberated from Vichy France by Charles De Gaulle's Free French forces during WWII. It's now a tourism and fishing-based economy, serving as a foothold for French claims of fishing rights in the North Atlantic.
Note that there are some crease lines and tears that are reproduced within the image of the poster, so it appears to be a reproduction, but it is nicely lithographed on heavy stock paper and a scarce-to-find poster in any form. A fun, circa 1965 cartoon-illustrated humorous tourist-type souvenir map of the islands and surrounding seas. I purchased it at an estate sale in a home that had not been updated since the 1970s, so I believe it's probably relatively contemporary to the time period it was originally made.
Note a few wrinkles as a result of its rolled-up state - otherwise quite clean with nice color and appeal. Please review photos carefully to make your own determination of overall condition and appeal, and don't hesitate to ask any questions prior to bidding - thanks for looking!
