We know of three editions for this poster. The first, copyrighted in 1931 is in black and white. Additional color editions were issued in 1941 and 1949.  This map offered here is the 1949 edition with a couple subtle differences from the 1941 first color edition including a cowgirl on horseback facing left in the border near the upper left corner.   The 1941 edition of the map shows a man on horseback facing the opposite direction in that spot.   The 1949 edition also removes a small sign for Coulterville Road which appears in the lower left corner of the 1941 edition.   \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 28px;\"\u003eThe artist Jo Mora was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and emigrated to the United States at a young age. Both his father, Domingo Mora, and his brother, F. Luis Mora, were successful artist. Jo Mora was a diverse artist who spent most of his professional life working in California as an illustrator, painter, mapmaker, photographer, sculpture, muralist and more. This vintage original pictorial map poster was one of Mora’s most popular works and is in very good condition with light handling wear and slight toning from age to the borders. The map is folded as issued and has a small circular stain in the top margin and the original owner wrote a brief list of American cities neatly in the upper left corner on the back of the poster which does not show on the front side. Overall condition is very good.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Golden Age Posters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52027535950104,"sku":"26040225 F","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0052\/7794\/1863\/files\/IMG_9239.jpg?v=1777935622","url":"https:\/\/goldenageposters.com\/products\/1931-yosemite-national-park-pictorial-cartoon-map-by-jo-mora-1949-ed","provider":"Golden Age Posters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
