Another amazing cover, this time for an 1899 Sanborn Insurance Maps book cover for San Francisco. The 6-volume Insurance Maps are quite detailed and show the city of San Francisco before its devastating 1906 earthquake. I love that these maps are scanned at such hi-res.
For his song Wide Web World, Paul Wex used 3D imagery from Nokia’s 3D Maps and spliced them together into this montage. This seems to be on par with Google Earth.
Aaron Meshon’s illustrations are both good and funny. He’s got a ton of editorial work published, but the highlight for me was browsing his illustrated maps. I wish this was either in book form or available to purchase as prints/posters.
Hahaha, when his English trails off…that’s the funniest. But seriously, these Google Maps pins in real life are pretty neat.
