Description
Illustrated view of the world from 9th Avenue in New York City, looking west. Buildings, street corners, cars, and people can be identified all the way until 10th Avenue, which is followed by the Hudson River, and Jersey, rendered only as a brown strip. Beyond, a green expanse into which Washington D.C., Kansas City, Chicago, Texas, Nebraska, and Las Vegas, and Los Angeles are scattered, with some topographical features, and bordered by Mexico and Canada. Past this lays the Pacific Ocean, and land masses labeled China, Japan, and Russia. Above, "The New Yorker"
