This unique and delightful map of mainland Scotland and the
Hebrides, from the collection of the National Library of Scotland,
is a magnificent pictorial map of Scotland. Not just annotated with
beautiful calligraphy, it also includes dozens of vignettes of
famous Scottish places, from cities and towns to lochs to mountains
and castles, as well as people and animals. It was originally
published in 1931 by Pratts Oil, which was known as Standard Oil in
the US and a few months later as Esso in the UK.
