1976 CONOCO Gas Station Road Map NEW MEXICO Route 66 Albuquerque Santa Fe Taos

Description: Handsome fold-out 1976 Conoco road map of New Mexico, printed more than 46 years ago. The map opens to 23" x 18" and has great detail on highway alignments, including U.S. Route 66, with cartography by H.M. Gousha. There are inset plans of Albuquerque and Santa Fe on the reverse side. The map was distributed by the Continental Oil Company in 1976 and is dated in the legend. The code number in the lower margin is 7-XX. Little triangle symbols locate Conoco gas stations in the state. Condition: This map is in very good condition, with no rips, tears, or writing. Please see the scans and feel free to ask any questions. Among the named places on the map are Roswell, Las Vegas, Carlsbad, Taos, Tusas, Park View, Silver City, and Truth or Consequences. The map also labels U.S. Route 666, nicknamed the "Devil's Highway" because of the reference in the Bible (Revelation 13:18): Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666. Although the road's designation was simply the result of its being the sixth branch of U.S. 66, it generated sufficient controversy that a few years ago the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials gave it a new number: U.S. 491. Consequently, U.S. 666 no longer appears on today's maps. Buy with confidence!
