Shows the United States and Canada with "Long Distance lines of the American Tel. & Tel. Co. and Lines of the other Bell Telephone Companies and their connections." The long distance lines are primarily in the eastern half of the country, with one line running as far west as Denver. There are no long distance lines in the west, and few local lines except in California. However, there are many lines in the mid west, with Iowa have greater phone development than Pennsylvania. A fascinating map showing the growth of the phone system at an early stage. Has the logo of the Bell System above the title. Top and bottom rollers are black wood. Map is unvarnished with full printed color.
