Pair of Monumental National Air Map Company Manhattan Aerial Photo Maps, 1955
Located in San Francisco, CA
A monumental and rare circa 1955 framed two-piece aerial photographic map of the borough of Manhattan in New York City by the National Air Map Company, including its original cover sheet.
Titled “Postal Zone Guide of New York – Borough of Manhattan”, these highly detailed aerial photo maps allow one to clearly discern a myriad of New York City landmarks. A small sampling of those labeled include Central Park, Grand Central Station, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, UN Plaza, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, and the Hayden Planetarium.
Neighborhoods, streets, bridges, subway lines, rivers, docks, and other notable locations are labeled, with unlabeled yet iconic spots such as the Guggenheim Museum and the Empire State Building providing a great opportunity for a borough-wide cartographic Easter egg hunt. A quadrant-based index on the left side of each map lists streets, museums, and sport centers such as Yankee Stadium, Ebbets Field, and Madison Square Garden.
Includes its original cover sheet titled “Aerial Photo Map of New York City” with photo, size, and price details on the front, and a business directory and advertisement for the National Air Map Company’s services on the back.

Antique and Vintage Wall Decor and Decorations
An empty wall in your home is a blank canvas, and that’s good news. Whether you’ve chosen to arrange a collage of paintings in a hallway or carefully position a handful of wall-mounted sculptures in your dining room, there are a lot of options for beautifying your space with the antique and vintage wall decor and decorations available on 1stDibs.
If you’re seeking inspiration for your wall decor, we’ve got some ideas (and we can show you how to arrange wall art, too).
“I recommend leaving enough space above the piece of furniture to allow for usable workspace and to protect the art from other items damaging it,” says Susana Simonpietri, of Brooklyn home design studio Chango & Co.
Hanging a single attention-grabbing large-scale print or poster over your bar or bar cart can prove intoxicating, but the maximalist approach of a salon-style hang, a practice rooted in 17th-century France, can help showcase works of various shapes, styles and sizes on a single wall or part of a wall.
If you’re planning on creating an accent wall — or just aiming to bring a variety of colors and textures into a bedroom — there is more than one way to decorate with wallpaper. Otherwise, don’t overlook what textiles can introduce to a space. A vintage tapestry can work wonders and will be easy to move when you’ve found that dream apartment in another borough.
Express your taste and personality with the right ornamental touch for the walls of your home or office — find a range of contemporary art, vintage photography, paintings and other wall decor and decorations on 1stDibs now.
