The
Voyage of the Pequod is one of a series of twelve literary maps based
on British and American literary classics produced by the Harris-Seybold
Company of Cleveland between 1953 and 1964. The map was part of a
calendar printed to advertise the capabilities of the company's lithographic
printing equipment. Illustrator Everett Henry was a well-known New
York commercial artist also noted for his mural paintings. The Library
has more than 225 literary maps that record the location of places
associated with authors and their literary works or serve as a guide
to their imaginative worlds.
