Area Codes

I really like maps. I know it's a fairly strange thing to like, but I just do. They are brilliant for wrapping paper or wall decoration, and navigation. In the most recent Creative Review there is an article about strange maps. For more go to: http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/ They are really good.




This is a map published in 1833 by Carey & Hart, and is drawn by Joseph & James Churchman and IW Moore. Here America is represented as an eagle/dove.

I think this one is the best. In Ludacris' song he claims to have lots of 'hoes' in differing area codes which basically means he is a SLUT. Here Stephen Gray has actually made a map penning all of Ludacris' claims of having different 'hoes' in different states. I think it's brilliant.
