1948 Shell Highway Map of Oklahoma. - David Rumsey Historical Map Collection
A remarkable map of Oklahoma that not only shows the official highway system, but also county roads and small towns that were usually omitted by the official state highway map. This is Oklahoma before turnpikes, before the Corps of Engineers massive lake-building effort. Highway 33 (now US 412) crossed the Grand River east of Chouteau via a free ferry.
The backside features 1948 maps of Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Muskogee, Okmulgee, Ardmore, and Enid. Interesting to see the paths that the highways took through the cities in the days before interstates and expressways.
