This delightful pictorial map poster of Berks County, Pennsylvania was designed by Ralph D. Dunkleberger and published by W.T. Peck & Co. in 1947.   This map is elaborately illustrated with dozens of icons and caricatures denoting points of historical interest throughout Berks County all surrounded by a decorative border.  The cartouche area of the map reads:

This vintage original pictorial map has pinholes on the corners and a single pinhole at the top center and left center edge.   The map shows toning from age and light handling wear.   Overall condition is very good.
