One of DP’s favorite items in the Archives and Special Collections is this oblique map of South Dakota.

It is a favorite because geographical information expressed in this slanted or skewed method is less common than a vertical overhead view, especially before computer mapping software.


1943 map of South Dakota showing physical features.

The map title is Physical Features State of South Dakota. It is in the South Dakota State Geological Survey Bulletin no. 13, 1943. Call number CHILSON COLLECTION QE163 .A3 no.13.
