Date
Determination: There is no date shown on the map. The actual map
used in this issue is an exact reproduction of the map issued by the
Ontario Department of Highways. The legend indicates that the
Provincial Highways were numbered 2 through to 31. Highway 31 was
completed in 1927. A lag time of one year from physical completion
to the road being shown on the map is conceivable. The plainness of
the cover - no color or logo being used also speaks to the year of the
map. Production of
colored covers would be subsequent to this map.
