Note: This map has a very
generic appearance to it - the only reference to Esso is the logo on the
cover and the small boxes containing information about the Voyageur
Restaurants. I would speculate that the same map was made
available to any company or organization who was willing to pay to have
their logo attached to it. It truly reflects the decline of public
maps and their priority to the oil companies. |
