Guide to the museum, first floor

Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation · 1922 · New York : Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation · 16 pictures

A 1922 museum guide published in New York by the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, for visitors to its first floor on Indians of North America. The pictures are plain outline maps of North America, each with one shaded region marking a culture area such as Central Atlantic, Central Algonquian, or Southern Siouan Grass, with the label printed beneath. A designer could take the clean, minimal cartographic style and the simple shaded-region device for diagrams or information graphics.
