Description: Handsome large-format fold-out 1970 official road map of Arizona, printed more than 54 years ago. This map opens to 24" x 36" and has great detail on old hgihway alignments, route numbers, and road surfaces. Among the details are cities, towns, Indian reservations, parks, and natural features, as well as state and federal highways, including U.S. Route 66, which was still signed west of Williams, through Peach Valley and Hackberry. The map also labels U.S. Route 666, nicknamed the "Devil's Highway" because of the reference in the Bible (Revelation 13:18): Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666. Although the road's designation was simply the result of its being the sixth branch of U.S. 66, it generated sufficient controversy that a few years ago the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials gave it a new number: U.S. 491. Consequently, U.S. 666 no longer appears on today's maps. There are inset plans of Phoenix, Tucson, Flagstaff, Yuma, and northwestern Mexico. The map was issued by the Arizona Highway Department in 1970 and is dated on the cover. Condition: It is in very good condition, bright and clean, with no marks, rips, or tears.
