PROHIBITION BOOTLEGGERS MAP of the U. S. 1926 Poster
From 1926, at the height of prohibition and the roaring twenties a BOOTLEGGERS MAP of the U. S.
This unique map spoofing prohibition, by Edward McCandlish is filled with puns; nothing is sacred in this hilarious look at alcohol and prohibition.
Many place names are plays on words, like Chi-keg-o, Tus-Keg-ee, Mash-ville, Albu-Corky, Scotch Bluff, Booze (Boise), etc. The pints of the compass are Norse, Wets, Yeast, and Souse.
McCandlish was a prominent illustrator for the children's page in many newspapers in the 1920's and 1930's, making this parody a radical departure for him.
A wonderful piece of Americana that beautifully captures the humour and mood of the public during that epic dry era.

I originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it.
I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
