Gulf of MEXICO, Old Hand-drawn Ink and Crayon Schoolgirl Map classic design the frame of the chairI love any old kid drawn map but found this one especially good and timely for placing the Gulf of MEXICO right at the center. Panama is in this one too, though not labeled but not Canada, or Greenland! Signed Eleanor Allard in tiny letters along the bottom edge 9" x 6 1 8" and in good condition, ink and crayon on construction type paper. I found Eleanor Allard of Damariscotta, ME, 1917 2005; this map likely dates to the late 1920s very early 30s.
